1. Apparatus for fusing electrical conductors to electric motor parts by applying heat and pressure to a region of an electric motor part which is adjacent to an electrical conductor so that said electric motor part region deforms to permanently mechanically and electrically contact said electrical conductor, said pressure being applied substantially perpendicular to a predetermined reference plane of said electric motor part, said apparatus comprising:

  • means for fusingsensor means for determining the distance of said reference plane from a reference point on said apparatus, said distance being measured substantially perpendicular to said plane, said reference plane remaining at a fixed distance away from said reference point on said apparatus even after fusing of said region; and

    means for applying information obtained by said sensor means to said apparatus to control fusing operations.
