Abstract
In a method for producing a mixture of a metallic matrix material and an additive, a metallic bulk material is molten in a multi-shaft screw machine in a heating zone thereof by means of an inductive heating device to form a metal matrix material. As the at least one housing portion of the housing of the multi-shaft screw machine is made of a non-magnetic and electrically non-conductive material at least partly in the heating zone, a high and efficient energy input for melting the metallic bulk material is achievable in a simple manner. The additive for producing the mixture is admixed to the metallic matrix material by means of treatment element shafts of the multi-shaft screw machine.
