1. A method for producing a cooling component, which has a cooling body made of metal or a metal alloy, aluminum, with which an object may be cooled, wherein the cooling body has one or more, parallel medium channels for the throughflow of cooling medium, and a connection part, which is connected to the cooling body in a fluid-tight manner and via which the cooling medium can be supplied to the cooling body and/or via which the cooling medium can be discharged from the cooling body, having the following measures:
a) inserting an, terminal connecting region of a/the prefabricated cooling body, which is, produced by profile extrusion and, manufactured in one piece, into a receiving space of a receptacle of a/the prefabricated, injection molded, plastic connection part for the cooling body via a relative movement between the cooling body and the connection part, so that each of a plurality of, mutually parallel opposing connecting faces of a connecting region of the cooling body, each with three-dimensional nanostructures and/or microstructures incorporated, by physical and/or chemical nanostructuring or microstructuring methods, is opposite a respectively associated connecting face of the receptacle of the connection part, a respectively associated connecting face which is arranged on an inner side of a wall of the receptacle,
b) heating the connecting faces of the cooling body, via induction, to a temperature which corresponds at least to a softening temperature or melting temperature of the plastic of the connection part, before the connecting region of the cooling body is inserted into the receiving space of the receptacle and/or while the connecting region is located in the receiving space,
c) connecting all heated connecting faces of the cooling body to the respectively opposing connecting face of the connection part in a fluid-tight manner by pressing these mutually opposing connecting faces together with fusion of the connecting face of the connection part through the heat of the connecting face of the cooling body.
