A method of manufacturing an assembly with a housing part and at least two conductors of shape sheet metal parts may include providing at least one first conductor formed from at least one sheet metal part and at least one second conductor formed from at least one sheet metal part. The method may then include arranging the first and second conductors in an injection mold in such a way that the first conductor may come into mechanical contact with the second conductor in a common contact zone to produce an electrical connection. The method may then include at least partially overmolding the first and second conductors with a plastic to form a joint housing part. The method may further include bonding the first and second conductors in a region of the common contact zone after at least partially overmolding the first and second conductors.

Method for manufacturing an arrangement comprising a housing part and at least two conductor paths

A supercharged internal combustion engine may include an exhaust gas turbocharger which is integrated into an exhaust section on the turbine side and into an intake section on the compressor side. An exhaust gas recirculation line may connect the exhaust section and the intake section. The exhaust gas recirculation line may branch off from the exhaust section downstream of a turbine of the exhaust gas turbocharger and opens into the intake section upstream of a compressor. A valve device for performing at least one of open-loop and closed-loop control of an exhaust gas recirculation rate may be arranged in the region of the exhaust gas recirculation line.
