The embodiments of the invention relate to a carbon brush for transmitting high currents, having a connecting element for connecting an electrical track and a consumable contact element with a contact surface that is designed to lie flush against a commutator device, wherein the connecting element and the contact element are combined in a layer transition zone aligned perpendicularly to the direction of wear of the carbon brush and form a one-piece molded body, wherein the connecting element and the contact element have different compositions, such that a carbon component of the contact element is greater than the carbon component of the connecting element and the contact element has a metal component differing from that of the connecting element.

The invention relates to a method and a device for manufacturing a multi-layer compression moulded element and to a compression moulded element which is embodied as a multi-layer carbon brush and has at least a first and a second moulding layer, in which, in order to carry out the method, a multi-component mould which comprises a moulding element and a mould slide arrangement interacts with a moulding die, and in which a mould which is defined by the selected configuration of the moulding slide arrangement in the moulding element is filled by filling moulding segments which are formed one next to the other with moulding material in chronological succession in a transverse direction with respect to the axis of the moulding die, and by the compression moulded element being subsequently formed by moving the moulding die and moulding slide arrangement relative to one another in the mould.
