Abstract: A method and a device for pressure sintering connection of a joining group composed of a first and a second joining partner by means of a device with a lower tool and an upper tool having the steps: providing the joining group at room temperature as an initial temperature, arranging the joining group between the supporting surface and the pressure surface, wherein the joining group has no direct thermal contact with the supporting surface and no direct thermal contact with the pressure surface, introducing pressure onto the joining group, wherein at the start of the introduction of pressure the starting temperature of the joining group is no more than 100K above an initial temperature; increasing the temperature of the sintering agent by at least 50K above the starting temperature; ending the introduction of pressure.
