Abstract
A process for fabricating a fiber-reinforced metal composite is disclosed which comprises laminating a plurality of a sheet-like precomposites comprising bundles of filaments of metal reinforcing fibers, among the filaments of which a matrix metal powder having an average particle size of not more than 1/2 of the diameter of the fiber is spread, and among bundles of which a matrix metal powder having an average particle size of 2 to 10 times the diameter of the fiber is spread, and hot-pressing the resulting laminate either in a vacuum or in an atmosphere of an inert gas.
