1. A method of manufacturing a piezoelectric actuator, comprising steps of:

  • providing a piezoelectric element and a lead wire for supplying a drive signal to the piezoelectric element;

    immersing a melt material into a fusing agent;

    supplying a quantity of the melt material and the fusing agent to a transfer plate;

    adjusting the quantity of the melt material and the fusing agent on the transfer plate;

    transferring a preselected quantity of the melt material and the fusing agent from the transfer plate to a transfer tool;

    supplying the preselected quantity of the melt material and the fusing agent from the transfer tool to the lead wire;

    welding the melt material on the lead wire; and

    welding the melt material on the piezoelectric element to thereby connect the lead wire to the piezoelectric element.
