Abstract
A high-speed welding apparatus comprises a frame F along which a first conveying mechanism (20) moves a carrier member (11) having mounted thereon a holder (14) holding a connector (100) and a cable (103) to a welding station (30). A feed mechanism (30A) at the welding station (30) engages the carrier member (11) and continously feeds it at a specified speed along the welding station (30) so that a welding device (33) automatically welds electrical conductors of the cable (103) to respective electrical contacts of the connector (100). A second conveying mechanism (40) then moves the carrier member (11) away from the welding station (30) so that the welded connector and cable can be removed therefrom.
