Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a centrifugal pendulum (1) as well as a centrifugal pendulum (1) which is manufactured using said method and which comprises pendulum components (13, 14) made of sheet metal, i.e. a pendulum mass support (2) that is arranged about an axis of rotation (d), and pendulum masses (3) that are distributed about the circumference. In order to reduce tool costs and the cost per item, at least one punched blank (9) comprising at least two pendulum components (13, 14) is manufactured, whereupon the pendulum components (13, 14) are separated from one another.
