Abstract

A blank material for manufacturing fiber-reinforced coatings or metal components comprising fibers made of a high-strength material and metals or metal alloys, and a process for manufacturing the blank, and for manufacturing coatings and components made therefrom. The fibers are aligned in the blank in parallel to its axis, and metal wire meshes are knitted around them, with the fibers embedded at a distance from one another. By means of high-temperature isostatic pressing, metal components can be made, through which the reinforcing fibers extend at a uniform distance.
