Semi-finished honeycomb part and sandwich part

A method for producing a semi-finished honeycomb-core product for a motor vehicle, comprising:

• providing a honeycomb core having a plurality of webs;
• moistening the honeycomb core at least in a deformation region of the webs by dipping the honeycomb core into an alcohol-based liquid contained within a container;
• and
• crumpling the honeycomb core at least in the deformation region by pressing the honeycomb core against a bottom surface of the container while the honeycomb core is dipped into the liquid.

A method for producing a sandwich component for a motor vehicle, comprising:

• providing a honeycomb core having a plurality of webs;
• moistening the honeycomb core at least in a deformation region of the webs by dipping the honeycomb core into at least one of acid-based liquid or an alcohol-based liquid contained within a container;
• crumpling the honeycomb core at least in the deformation region by pressing the honeycomb core against a bottom surface of the container while the honeycomb core is dipped into the liquid contained within the container;
• and
• applying outer layers to the ends of the honeycomb core, wherein the outer layers are composed of fibre composite material, or semi-finished fibre material.
