    Abstract: A process for producing a part provided with an external element includes: providing an electrically conductive substrate having an upper surface and a raised pattern with a crest on the upper surface; depositing an electrically insulating layer onto the upper surface around the pattern to a thickness less than or equal to the distance between the crest and the upper surface; depositing a metal layer onto the crest by galvanic growth so that the metal layer partly rests on the insulating layer; dissolving the insulating layer; covering an assembly including the substrate and the metal layer with a mass of a base material of the part to form an imprint; separating the mass and the metal layer from the substrate, the mass then exhibiting an external element formed by a recess, the shape of which corresponds to the imprint and the base of which interfaces with the metal layer.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the production of a part provided with an external element, wherein the process comprises the following steps: provide an electrically conductive substrate having an upper surface and a raised pattern on said upper surface, wherein the pattern has an crest deposit an electrically insulating layer onto the upper surface of the substrate around the pattern to a thickness less than or equal to the distance between the crest and the upper surface deposit a metal layer onto the crest of the pattern by galvanic growth so that at the end of this step the metal layer partly rests on the insulating layer dissolve the insulating layer cover an assembly comprising the substrate and the metal layer with a mass of a base material of the part, wherein the mass forms an imprint of the assembly separate the mass and the metal layer from the substrate, wherein the mass then exhibits an external element formed by a recess, the shape of which corresponds to the imprint of the pattern and the base of which interfaces with the metal layer.
