Process for the production of a metal-plastic-hybrid component and metal-plastic-hybrid component

Abstract

A method for producing a metal-plastic-hybrid component comprises: providing a metal shaped piece, and providing a stiff plastics shaped piece made of a rigid thermoplastic. The geometry of the shape of the plastics shaped piece is at least partially adapted to that of the metal shaped piece. The method further comprises mechanically connecting the plastics shaped piece to the metal shaped piece in a manner such that the plastics shaped piece and the metal shaped piece are held against one another by intrinsic stress, and such that there is a substantial area of surface-contact between the plastics shaped piece and the metal shaped piece at at least one interface. The method further comprises inductively welding the plastics shaped piece to the metal shaped piece at the at least one interface.
