The connection of plastics and metals poses a challenge due to the different physical properties of the two materials. All conventional joining options, such as bonds using adhesives or rivets, have their disadvantages — adhesives need time to harden, which delays further processing, and plastics can be easily damaged during riveting. Furthermore, both adhesive bonding and riveting require additional materials that increase production costs.
