Abstract
A method and device enable the linear separation of two elements attached to each other through two connecting plates of the first element and the second element respectively. An arrangement connecting and separating the two connecting plates are mixed and comprise a layer. The connecting arrangement comprises soldering, glue, or resin, whereas the separating arrangement comprises thermite. These elements can also be layered rather than mixed. An electrical triggering of this assembly causes its quick and local warming-up and thus enables both of these elements to be separated.
