Abstract: In a method for producing a squirrel-cage rotor for an asynchronous machine, conductor rods made from a first conductive material are inserted in substantially axial grooves of a laminated rotor core in such a manner that the conductor rods protrude from an end face of the laminated rotor core. A short circuit ring disc made from a second conductive material and heated above the recrystallization temperature is axially pressed onto the protruding conductor rods on the end face of the laminated rotor core, taking into account a temperature range, a deformation, and the rate of deformation of the short circuit ring, with a permissible shear stress of the first and second conductive materials being locally exceeded and material transitions being caused by diffusion at an interface between the conductor rods and the short circuit ring, thereby resulting in microwelding. Subsequently or simultaneously the short circuit ring disc is hot shaped.
