Mechanism of Resistance Microwelding of Insulated Copper Wire to Phosphor Bronze Sheet

Abstract: Resistance microwelding of fine insulated copper wire to phosphor bronze thin sheet without prior removal of insulation is of increasing industrial importance for electrical connections in downsized electronic devices, but the understanding of the process is very limited. Therefore, this work aims to clarify the basic joining mechanism. The effects of main process parameters (welding current, weld time and electrode force) and joint microstructure were investigated by tensile testing, optical microscopy, scann… Show more

“…Resistance microwelding (RMW) is an importance microjoining technology which is increasingly used in the fabrication of electronic devices, micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) and medical devices, such as batteries, relays, sensors, interconnections in printed circuit boards and pacemaker implants [1][2][3][4]. Compared to the extensive work in normal scale resistance welding, however, very limited information is available for RMW, e.g., recommendations for welding parameter selection and specific international standards on process, materials, and equipment are still lacking [1].…”

“…Conventional joining methods are modified to suit the needs of heterogeneous tiny joints. Resistance micro-welding, laser droplet joining, duothermal soldering process, and precision miniaturized droplet deposition technique are some of the newly evolved techniques [3][4][5][6]. These techniques still need standardization due to diverse material characteristics.…”

“…Chen [ 2 ] studied resistance microwelding of 316L stainless steel to Pt wire and investigated the joint breaking force, fracture mode, and interfacial metallurgical phenomena. Mo et al [ 3 ] focused on the mechanism of resistance microwelding of insulated copper wire to phosphor bronze sheet. They investigated the effects of the main process parameters and joint microstructure.…”
