Abstract:
A process for producing a groove-like recess which is part of a strip seal between two components which enclose a gap, the groove-like recess in each of the two components, after orientation with respect to one another, lie substantially opposite one another in an end position in which they enclose the gap between them, and that a strip element can be introduced into the groove-like recesses in such a manner that the strip element at least partially projects into both groove-like recesses and, under the action of a force, forms a substantially gastight joint with the groove-like recesses in the two components, the process for producing a groove-like recess comprising:first removing material from the two components at a first material-removal rate using a material-removing process technology; and second removing material from the two components at a second material-removal rate using a material-removing process technology; wherein the first material-removal rate is greater than the second material-removal rate.
