Apparatus for curing a part.(32) includes a wheeled frame (20) having sliding part supports (28, 30) that move the part from a loading position to a curing position. A part clamping assembly(34) is slidably mounted on the frame to apply clamping pressure to the part when the part is in the curing position in order to compact the part during a cure cycle. The clamping assembly includes a -set of electrically heated shoes (38) that heat the part to a cure temperature. A fan is provided to accelerate cool down the part after curing is complete. The heating and cooling operations are automatically performed by a programmed controller. |
