Abstract

In a method of manufacturing open-cell bodies, individual parts of an open pore plastic in a size which corresponds to the size of the bodies to be manufactured while taking account of the shrinkage on a sintering or an open pore plastic element having predetermined break points which take account of the size and geometrical design of bodies to be manufactured are/is in filtrated and coated with a suspension in which at least one powdery material is contained. Organic components are expelled after a first heat treatment. Subsequently, a sintering is carried out. Parts of porous plastic provided with the suspension are separated before the first heat treatment or wherein, afterwards the open-cell element which is obtained from the plastic element from the material with which the bodies are formed is cut by forces and thereby separated bodies can be obtained.
