Each material has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of its mechanical, chemical and physical properties. Metallic materials are comparatively ductile and easy to process. Fibre reinforced plastics are very stiff and endure high tensile stresses based on their weight. By intelligent combination of these materials into one overall-part light but strong components may be established. However, the conventional production of a separate fibre reinforced plastic (FRP)-component and a metal component and a subsequent joining is time- And labour-intensive and therefore not economical in mass-production. Thus in this paper a new fabrication technology is presented.
