Abstract

In a method for producing a material sheet, in particular a metallic material sheet, a green body containing solid-state particles is sintered at a sintering temperature by heating the green body during sintering at least partly using microwave energy in accordance with a defined temperature profile having a heating phase and an essentially isothermal hold phase. A temperature of the green body is ascertained contactlessly with a sensor, and a supply of heat energy is controlled as a function of the temperature of the green body. During the heating phase an average microwave power is supplied and during the hold phase another average microwave power is supplied which is less than the one average microwave power.
