Abstract
A method for producing an assembly for a motor vehicle includes providing two separately formed components; applying adhesive intended for adhesively bonding the components to one another on at least one of the components; connecting the components by crimping; performing an immersion bath treatment of the connected components by electrophoretic deposition, by which the components are coated, where a gap extending between the adhesive and at least one of the components is formed during the crimping on a surface of the adhesive, which gap is filled at least partially with coating material by which the coating of the components is carried out during the immersion bath treatment, in which a coating of the components is formed.
Claims10
A method for producing an assembly for a motor vehicle, comprising the steps of:
- providing a first component and a second component, wherein the first component and the second component are separately formed;
- applying an adhesive to at least one of the first component and the second component;
- connecting the first component and the second component by crimping;
- performing an immersion bath treatment of the connected first component and the second component by electrophoretic deposition;
- and
- during the crimping, forming a gap extending between the adhesive and at least one of the first component and the second component on a surface of the adhesive and filling the gap at least partially during the immersion bath treatment with a coating material via which the first component and the second component are coated.
An assembly for a motor vehicle, comprising:
- a first component and a second component, wherein the first component and the second component are formed separately from one another, wherein the first component and the second component are connected to one another by crimping, wherein the first component and the second component are adhesively bonded to one another by an adhesive, and wherein the first component and the second component are coated by an immersion bath treatment by electrophoretic deposition;
- wherein a gap formed during the crimping and formed on a surface of the adhesive extending between the adhesive and one of the first component and the second component is filled by the immersion bath treatment at least partially with a coating material via which the first component and the second component are coated.
