Abstract
A method of curing a part in a mold using induction heated tooling is provided. In preferred embodiments, the method comprises placing a material that may be cured with pressure and heat in tooling made from a non-metallic material wherein the tooling includes a mold cavity that forms the part. Creating an electro-magnetic field across the tooling using induction coils. Applying pressure to the tooling and heating a metallic material contained in channels formed in the tooling around the mold cavity of the part.
