Abstract: A method for producing a flywheel includes producing a damping plate part by permanently connecting at least a first metallic plate element provided for the flywheel to at least one further material layer to form a sandwich component. According to the method, the first plate element is connected by a joining process to at least a second, parallel plate layer, so that they lie on one another to form a disc-shaped structural unit. According to the method, at least two sheet metal layers from different materials and/or at least two sheet metal layers having different material strengths are connected with each other. This enables a large variance for the production of flywheels. In this way, it is possible, for example, to produce a flywheel having a plurality of superimposed plates adapted to the respective load situation in a defined flexibility.
