ABSTRACT
Dynamic welding, being the principal mechanism of sticking failure, correlates closely with the contact bounce of electromechanical relay. The typical waveforms of dynamic contact force and contact voltage at making and breaking process are obtained with the use of a new designed test rig. The variations in bounce time, bounce numbers, last bounce duration, and relevant welding force are investigated in the electrical endurance test. It is determined that the welding strength and the welding probability are increased with the reduced stationary force. The degradation physical mechanism is present to better understand the relationship between dynamic welding and operation characteristics of electromechanical relay.
