Abstract: A method for connecting a first component from a metal aluminide or a refractory Ti alloy to a second component from steel, metal aluminide or a refractory Ti alloy, especially from a steel shaft, by friction welding is disclosed. An intermediary from an Ni alloy is inserted between the first component and the second component and friction welding is carried out. A connecting layer is produced from the intermediary and is firmly connected on both ends to the first and the second component. A turbocharger rotors and valves for internal combustion engines produced by the disclosed method is also provided.

Abstract: A rotor for exhaust-gas turbochargers having a turbine wheel (3) made of a metal aluminide, a hollow shaft (2) made of steel or of a nickel-based alloy, and a compressor wheel (1), the compressor wheel (1) having a journal (5), which partially extends into the hollow shaft (2) made of steel or of nickel-based alloy and which forms a positive connection (6) with the same, as well as a method for manufacturing rotors for exhaust-gas turbochargers having a turbine wheel (3), a metal hollow shaft (2), and a compressor wheel (1), including the steps of substance-to-substance bonding of the turbine wheel (3) and of the metal hollow shaft (2), positively connecting the compressor wheel and the metal hollow shaft (2), the positive connection (6) being produced by a journal (5) of the compressor wheel (1) projecting into metal hollow shaft (2), and by the inside of the metal hollow shaft.

Abstract: Exhaust gas conveying apparatus of an internal combustion engine with internal liner in which the liner features capillary bores which are open at least towards the exhaust gas conveying side of the liner as well as process for the fabrication of said apparatus.

Abstract: A method for connecting a wheel, such as a turbine wheel or compressor wheel, in a turbine wheel rotor. The method includes providing a shaft made of steel, and pouring a casting alloy around an end of the shaft, wherein the casting alloy includes an intermetallic compound of the system TiAl. The method is particularly well-suited making a connection of the turbine wheel and the shaft of an exhaust-gas turbocharger for motor vehicles using a casting process. In addition, a turbine wheel rotor, that includes a steel shaft, a cast wheel including a casting alloy fixedly connected to an end of the shaft. The casting alloy including an intermetallic compound of the system TiAl. A connection between the cast wheel and the shaft includes at least one of a friction fit, a positive fit, and an integral connection.

Abstract: For making an interconnection between a valve head and stem, the interconnection between these parts is made by pouring a cast alloy around the stem end. A connection and a valve are also provided.
