Zusammenfassung:A method for fixing one end of an actuation cable includes providing a part provided with at least one region made of thermoplastic material for fixing one end of an actuation cable and providing a serrated welding head formed of teeth alternately separated by hollows. The end of an actuation cable is then positioned on a region of the part made of thermoplastic material, heated, and the serrated welding head is applied with pressure onto the end of the actuation cable to ensure the penetration of the teeth into the region made of thermoplastic material to move the material in the hollows in order to obtain at least one bead of thermoplastic material trapping the actuation cable.
