Abstract
A method of producing a fiber reinforced metal composition is characterized by a unique and successful pressure exerting program for consolidating a fiber assembly fabricated into a desired configuration and a molten metal matrix. The program is generally constituted a first step in which relatively low pressure is exerted on the molten metal for consolidation of the fiber assembly and the molten metal and a second step in which pressure is instantly increased to a maximum pressure for solidification of the metal matrix.
