Method and device for manufacturing a component with an integrated insert section

Production of a component (11) with an integrated insert (12), having electric contact(s) (36) and embedded in a metal matrix, includes fixing positioner(s) (14) onto the insert, at least before the insert is embedded in the matrix. The insert is held in fixed position in a casting mold using the positioner(s) while being embedded in the matrix. At least one positioner is formed as an additional functional element (36) in the insert. An independent claim is included for a corresponding component (11) with an integrated insert (12) (especially a functional ceramic) and a metal matrix (24) in which the insert is embedded. At least one positioner connects with the insert and is formed as an additional functional element (36). During introduction of the matrix into a casting mold, the insert is fixed in the mold by the positioner, which after the embedding procedure is located in an outer peripheral surface of the matrix or is moved out of the matrix.
