Abstract

A method for producing a pin for a feedthrough for an electromedical implant. A pin is produced using the following method steps: creating a foil-, sheet- or strip-shaped semi-finished product by joining at least one first layer element including an electrically conducting, preferably biocompatible, material in foil, sheet or strip form and at least one second layer element including a solder and/or an easily soft-solderable material, preferably in wire, sheet or strip form, or by applying the at least one second layer element onto the at least one first layer element; and at least partially detaching a pin, or a set of multiple pins connected to a connecting web 46, from the semi-finished product. A method is also provided for producing a feedthrough and an electromedical implant and to a pin, a feedthrough or an implant produced in the corresponding manner.
