Abstract
In a method for processing a fiber compound structure, an unhardened fiber layer is arranged on a surface section of the fiber compound structure. A pressure cushion is arranged above the surface section. The pressure cushion has a pressure cap and a pressure-tight cap mat pressure-tightly connected to a circumferential border of the pressure cap such that the cap mat limits a pressure area together with the pressure cap. An overpressure in the pressure area is generated. The pressure cushion is pressed onto the fiber compound structure such that the overpressure presses the cap mat against the fiber layer while supporting the fiber compound structure on a side of the fiber compound structure that is opposed to the surface section. The fiber layer is hardened
