Zusammenfassung:A consolidation device comprising a heating unit provided with at least one two-sided inductor, two walls of which are distributed on both sides of a support on which the preform is positioned, comprising carbon fibers embedded in a resin and oriented in a main direction belonging to a principal plane, as well as particles of ferromagnetic material. The two-sided inductor is capable of generating a uniform magnetic field, in order to achieve induction heating of the preform. The device further comprises tilting elements for tilting at least one of the following elements: the preform and the two-sided inductor, so as to orient the direction of incidence of the magnetic field in relation to the principal plane at an angle other than 90° and other than zero.
