  • Patent number: 12472557
    Abstract: A calibrated combination of parts are produced according to a method. The combination of parts includes at least one first part with a first contact surface and a second part with a second contact surface. The parts contact each other via the contact surfaces in the combination of parts. The parts are designed to be free of an undercut at least with respect to an axial direction and can be moved relative to each other along the axial direction and thereby along the contact surfaces in the calibrated combination of parts. The method has at least the following steps: a) providing the parts in the form of green bodies, b) sintering the parts and at least forming bonded connections between the parts; c) arranging the combination of parts in a calibrating tool; d) moving the parts relative to each other; e) arranging the parts in order to form the combination of parts; and f) calibrating the combination of parts.

  • Publication number: 20220371090
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a calibrated combination (I) of parts. The combination (I) of parts comprises at least one first part (2) with a first contact surface (3) and a second part (4) with a second contact surface (5), wherein the parts (2, 4) contact each other via the contact surfaces (3, 5) in the combination (I) of parts; and the parts (2, 4) are designed to be free of an undercut at least with respect to an axial direction (6) and can be moved relative to each other along the axial direction (6) and thereby along the contact surfaces (3, 5) in the calibrated combination (I) of parts.
