  • Patent number: 12510311
    Abstract: A method for producing a component for a heat exchanger through which fluid flows is provided. A base plate is provided on which there is an adhesive layer formed by glue. A channel plate is placed on the surface of the base plate such that the channel plate is spaced apart from the base plate in at least one channel region to delimit at least one fluid channel, and is bears on the adhesive layer in at least one bonding region to obtain a material bond with the base plate. The channel plate and base plate are clamped together in and by a hot press, such that a material bond is formed between the base plate and the channel plate in the bonding region when the adhesive layer is heated. The base plate and channel plate are placed in a cold press such that the adhesive layer that was heated in the hot press is cooled while the base plate is clamped against the channel plate.
