Abstract
The present invention provides for a method of dielectrically heating an adhesive between first and second members by first placing an adhesive bead between mating surfaces of the first and second member. A first electrode is placed adjacent to the first member and a high frequency electric field is applied between the first electrode and a second electrode sufficient to dielectrically heat the adhesive.
