Abstract

A method for manufacturing a susceptor for an inductively heatable aerosol-generating article includes the steps of providing a band of susceptor material and providing a compression stage. The compression stage includes oppositely arranged compression elements. In a first portion of the compression stage, the compression elements are arranged to define a progressively narrowing compression gap and in a second portion of the compression stage the compression elements are arranged to define a constant compression gap there between and the oppositely arranged compression elements are configured to have matching surface structures. The band of susceptor material is guided through the narrowing compression gap of the compression stage, such that the matching surface structures of the compression elements deep draw the band of susceptor material. A susceptor element having successively arranged plain and expanded portions and a method of manufacturing thereof are also provided.
