Abstract
The invention provides a method of manufacturing a thin metallic body composite structure. First, an inner layer of a first metal is cleaned to remove oxides and promote metallurgical bonding. The inner layer has a plurality of penetrating holes piercing the thickness of the inner layer. The penetrating holes are filled with metal powder of a second metal. Two outer layers of the second metal are placed on opposite sides of the cleaned and filled inner layer to form a sandwich structure. The sandwich structure is heated to a temperature at which recrystallization will occur in a non-oxidizing atmosphere. The sandwich structure is then hot worked to reduce thickness of the sandwich structure forming the thin metallic body composite structure.
