A method (S) for manufacturing a part () out of a metal matrix composite material, including the following steps: opening (S) a device () that includes a supporting portion () and a molding portion (); placing (S) a fibrous reinforcement into the device (); sealably closing (S) the device () by providing a space between the fibrous reinforcement () and the device portions; feeding (S) the molten metal matrix () into the device () such as to fill the space between the fibrous reinforcement () and the device portions (); and applying (S) a force onto the equipment () such as to impregnate the fibrous reinforcement () with the metal matrix ().

Method for manufacturing a part out of a metal matrix composite material, and related device

A composite material part including reinforcement made of carbon fibers or yarns consolidated by an organic matrix. The part includes one or more thermally and electrically conductive portions in which the carbon fibers or yarns are free of matrix at least in part, the matrix-free carbon fiber or yarn portions being in contact with a material that is thermally and electrically conductive.
