Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a bond of a first component (2) and of a second component (3) by means of a connecting mass (4), in particular with regard to large-area aircraft components of cylindrical or spherical contour, with the following method steps: (S1) connection of the components (2, 3) by means of the connecting mass (4); (S2) application of a heating element (6) to the first component (2); and (S3) curing of the connecting mass (4) by heating by means of the heating element (6) to produce the bond of the components (2, 3), wherein, during the curing of the connecting mass (4), a force is applied to the heating element (6) and the components (2, 3) by means of a first covering element (8) in the form of a vacuum film by the evacuation of a first cavity (12) in which the components (2, 3) and the heating element (6) applied to them are arranged, and to a corresponding device (1).
