The invention discloses a method for improving the
magnetic pulse welding quality of a
copper terminal and a multi-core aluminum
alloy dissimilar metal wire harness. The method comprises the steps that firstly, a multi-core aluminum wire is prepared, an insulating
skin outside the multi-core aluminum wire harness is stripped off, the multi-core aluminum wire harness is arranged to be in a fluffy state, the surface of the wire harness is cleaned up, and after the cleaned-up surface of the aluminum wire harness is pretreated, the
copper terminal and the multi-core aluminum
alloy dissimilar metal wire harness are subjected to
magnetic pulse welding; the method comprises the following steps: plating a
copper plating layer with a proper thickness on the surface of an aluminum wire harness by adopting
chemical plating and
electroplating methods, gathering the copper-plated aluminum wire harness into a cluster, stuffing the cluster into a copper terminal and a copper terminal with the plating layer, and
welding the copper-plated aluminum wire harness and the copper terminal into a metallurgical bonding
dissimilar metal welding joint by adopting a
magnetic pulse welding method. According to the method, copper is plated on the surface of the aluminum core wire by using a
copper plating process, so that the barrier of direct
welding between copper and aluminum is eliminated by taking a copper terminal and a
copper plating layer as actual welding objects, the welding is more easily and successfully implemented, and the problem of an oxidation film on the surface of the aluminum core wire is solved to a certain extent after
copper plating.
