METHOD FOR PRODUCING A PATTERN OF DEPRESSIONS IN THE FRICTION SURFACE OF A FRICTION COMPONENT AND A FRICTION COMPONENT FOR A FRICTIONALLY OPERATING DEVICE HAVING SUCH A PATTERN OF DEPRESSIONS

摘要

A method for producing a pattern of depressions in the friction surface of a friction component for a frictionally operating device, preferably a multiplate clutch or multiplate brake. After the preparation of the friction component, the pattern of depressions is produced by nontraditional material removal, removal of material preferably being accomplished in a contactless manner, particularly preferably with the aid of a laser beam.
