Abstract

A method and apparatus is presented. A method may comprise positioning a metallic bladder (1504) within a tool (1502), the tool having a number of die liners (1526,1528) that generate heat when exposed to a magnetic field; applying the magnetic field to the number of die liners (1526,1528) to heat the metallic bladder (1504); and pressurizing the metallic bladder (1504).
