The invention relates to a tool apparatus for producing a composite material component part, comprising a forming tool having a contact region for a workpiece, wherein the forming tool is made, in at least a portion thereof, of an electrically conductive material; and an induction heating apparatus having an inductive heating mat, wherein the heating mat is positioned in spaced relation to the forming tool, and wherein a positioning of the workpiece is provided between the heating mat and the forming tool, in contact with the forming tool, and wherein heating of the forming tool is provided, in at least a portion thereof, by the induction heating apparatus. The invention further relates to a method for producing a component part from a composite material by way of a forming tool.

Tool apparatus for producing a composite material component part and method for producing a component part from a composite material

A repair method for a workpiece of a plastics material is provided, wherein an induction heating apparatus is positioned at a repair region of the workpiece. The induction heating apparatus comprises a magnetic field generating device and a heat source. The heat source is arranged between the magnetic field generating device and the repair region. A repair material is positioned on the repair region and heated by way of the heat source. The heat source is inductively heated by the magnetic field generating device. A temperature (T) is measured by which an application of heat to the repair material by the heat source is characterized. The temperature (T) is controlled by means of a control device. The control of the temperature (T) by the control device occurs according to a temperature profile specification, which has a heating region and a working region following the heating region.
