Why reusable bag molding to produce composite components
Composites have an important role in many industries. Automotive, industrial and energy industries all use composite parts for a variety of reasons. Composites are corrosion-resistant, lightweight, strong and easy to mold. However, producing composites can be messy and expensive if done with the traditional open molding process. Open molding is useful primarily for large scale Read More…
Making large composites with closed mold processes
While it’s possible and common to manufacture goods by connecting several composite components together, sometimes you need one large, solid material. Traditionally, large-scale composites would be produced using open molding. This is a flexible form of producing composites that can be used for a variety of large-scale materials. However, open molding results in material waste Read More…
Case Study: Closed Mold Process Used on Innovative Combine Grain Extension Covers
The closed mold process is a method of working with resin that delivers many benefits. These include reduced waste and emissions, lower material and disposal costs, a more consistent, repeatable process, and reduced cycle times for higher productivity and lower labor costs. When dealing with composites, closed mold processes like light resin transfer molding (RTM), Read More…
What is Closed Mold Manufacturing?
Closed Molding is a technology which allows the manufacturing of better polymer composite parts in less time, with less waste, and largely reduced emissions a possibility. A wide range of industries use closed mold technologies to make precision parts. Industries include aerospace, transportation, and recreation. When identical parts need to be manufactured out of composites Read More…
