An end disk of a multi-disk clutch, the end disk having a ring plate which has a central opening and at least one axial impression on one front side, via which a corresponding projection is formed on the opposite front side.
An assembly of a plurality of end disks of a multi-disk clutch, each end disk having a ring plate which has a central opening and at least one axial impression on one front side, via which a corresponding projection is formed on the opposite front side, the end disks being made of sheet metal and each having the same sheet metal wall thickness, the axial extension of the projections being different when comparing the end disks with each other.
A method of manufacturing an assembly of a plurality of end disks of a multi-disk clutch, each end disk having a ring plate which has a central opening and at least one axial impression on one front side, via which a corresponding projection is formed on the opposite front side, the end disks being made of sheet metal and each having the same sheet metal wall thickness, the axial extension of the projections being different when comparing the end disks with each other, characterized by the following steps:
- providing ring plates of sheet metal, which all have the same sheet metal wall thickness and the same external dimensions, and
- manufacturing of end disks differing in their axial disk thickness by producing impressions of different depths and thus projections which differ in their axial extent by means of a forming tool, in particular always by means of the same forming tool which penetrates the end disks at different depths.
