Abstract

The invention provides a method for pre-curing an adhesive layer bonding a first component to a second component. The adhesive layer is heated by treating an adhesive layer component as heating the first component with a pair of electrodes that are in electrical contact with a surface of the first component, the pair of electrodes applying a predetermined electrical current (I1, I2) to the first component. The invention further provides an arrangement for pre-curing a layer of adhesive.
