Abstract:
1. A device for curing a plastic material wherein the plastic material is inserted at least partly in a transverse seam area between a fuselage section and a further fuselage section that is to be joined to the fuselage section to form an aircraft fuselage cell, wherein at least one of the fuselage sections is made of a carbon fiber reinforced epoxy resin, wherein for a locally defined heating of the transverse seam area at least one electromagnetic circular inductor is provided which is made of a multitude of segments for enabling a simultaneous hardening of the transverse seam area, wherein the circular inductor is arranged in an inner area of the fuselage section, and wherein the segmentation of the circular inductor enables an adaption to locally different sized curvature grades of the fuselage sections that are linked to each other in the transverse seam area.
