In order to impregnate a porous workpiece with a liquid impregnating agent, the pre-manufactured workpiece is arranged in an injection mould or diecasting mould and the liquid impregnating agent is introduced into the mould with the aid of a commercially available injection moulding or diecast moulding apparatus. To limit the need for post impregnation cleaning and/or shaping, the mould cavity is configured to closely fit the shape of the pre-manufactured workpiece. The impregnating agent may be a natural or synthetic lubricant, a plastic or, more commonly, a molten metal or metal alloy. |
