Abstract

A method for manufacturing at least one synchronizing ring includes providing a rough-turned blank made from a hardenable material that is in a not-hardened state and laser-cutting the rough-turned blank to form the at least one synchronizing ring, the laser cutting being performed with an energy chosen to be sufficient to selectively harden at least a portion of the material in a region along which the laser cutting occurs.
