Device used for manufacturing a metal-ceramic composite material comprises a casting flask, a casting chamber having an opening for the casting metal and the initial ceramic product, and a casting tool with a casting run and a die cavity

Device used for manufacturing a metal-ceramic composite material comprises a casting plunger (1), a casting chamber (2), and a casting tool (3) with a casting run (4) and a die cavity (5). The casting chamber has an opening (6) through which the casting metal and the initial ceramic product are poured. An Independent claim is also included for a process for manufacturing a metal-ceramic composite material comprising producing a preform from an initial ceramic product and infiltrating this under pressure with a casting metal in a casting tool. Preferred Features: A shooting head (7) for shooting in the initial ceramic product is placed on the opening so that it moves. A pouring channel (8) for pouring the casting metal is placed on the opening. Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Metall-Keramik-Verbundwerkstoffs. Hierbei wird mit einem Schießkopf keramisches Pulver in ein Gießwerkzeug geschossen, das Pulver wird hierdurch zu einer porösen Preform verdichtet und anschließend wird die Preform im Gießwerkzeug mit flüssigem Metall unter Druck infiltriert.
