Zusammenfassung:Device (1) for curing a plastics tube (100), which is impregnated with UV-curing synthetic resin, in a sewage pipe (101), said device comprising an elongate housing (2), the longitudinal axis of which extends in the processing direction (102) along the sewage pipe (100), and at least one light source (3) which emits UV radiation, the light source (3) being formed by at least one light-emitting diode (5) which emits UV radiation (4), wherein, in the housing (2), the at least one light-emitting diode (5) is aligned in the processing direction (102) such that the main emission direction (6) of the UV radiation emitted by the light-emitting diode (5) is oriented substantially in parallel with the longitudinal axis of the housing (2), the emitted UV radiation (4) impinging on at least one reflector (7, 8), which reflects the emitted UV radiation (4) radially with respect to the longitudinal axis of the housing (2) such that the emitted UV radiation (4) impinges on the plastics tube (100) to be cured transversely to the processing direction (102).
