Abstract

The component (1) for a static mixer(100) is manufactured by cutting and forming or by stamping out of a planar material strip (10). It extends in a longitudinal direction (11) given by the material strip. The component has transverse segments (2) arranged at intervals transversely to the longitudinal direction (11) that lie in a central plane (12) of the component (1) after forming or stamping. Strip fields (30) are located between the transverse segments (2), correspond to a line pattern made by the cutting or stamping and include longitudinal strips (3), i.e. strips (3) extending in a longitudinal direction. The transverse widths of the strips can be variable. For each strip, half-strips (7, 8′; 8, 7′) can be respectively distinguished with respect to the central region (6) of the strip field. The half-strips are bent out of the central plane (12) by the forming or stamping, and each form a bending edge with respect to the transverse segments (2) at the base lines (32).
