Abstract

The invention relates to a method for welding different materials. An adapted quantity of additive material in the form of particles (3) is accelerated with the aid of an explosive charge (1) and a propulsion element (2) to a high velocity down into a joint space (8), where the particles collide with the workpieces (4, 5) and bond thereto and to themselves.
