Abstract

One aspect relates to a method for producing an electrical bushing for an implantable medical device. The method includes generating an insulation element green compact for an insulation element from an insulating composition of materials. The insulation element green compact is partially sintered. At least one cermet-containing conduction element green compact for a conduction element is formed. The at least one conduction element green compact is introduced into the insulation element green compact. The insulation element green compact and the at least one conduction element green compact are fired to obtain an insulation element with at least one conduction element.
