Abstract

A method for closing channels containing pressure fluid in a housing, so that the dynamic load applied to the housing and the closing member during the pressing process is minimized. Thus a pressing force with a defined direction and entity acts discontinuously on the closing member, the latter realizes a discontinuous feed motion directed into the channel, acting only on the housing material at the recess of the closing member producing the form-lock to yield into the recess due to the discontinuous force impact on the closing member.
