Current trends in the areas of material efficiency, electromobility and CO_2 reduction on the one hand, as well as increased safety and performance requirements on the other, demand novel material concepts with defined properties and the associated manufacturing technologies. This can be achieved through a targeted combination of conventional fiber reinforced composites (FRC), which have a high degree of stiffness and strength, with metallic materials, which are characterized by their pronounced ductility and the associated higher energy absorption capacity. Current solutions to achieve this are limited to the hybridization of different mono-material yarns on the meso level and FRC-metal laminates (FML) built up in layers. However, such FRC-metal composites have the following specific disadvantages: insufficient mixing of the components, very high manufacturing costs and the resulting in-terlaminar interfaces between sheet metal and matrix. Therefore, the aim of this work is to establish basic knowledge and application-related technological fundamentals for the development of multi-material yarn constructions made of metal and high-performance fibers through micro level mixing.
