RESIN INFUSION PROCESS: Resin Infusion is a process by which vacuum draws resin into a dry fiber laminate in a one sided mold. A rigid or flexible film membrane is placed over the top and sealed around the mold periphery. Resin infusion is considered a “Closed Mold Process”.

GLASS LAMINATING: The vacuum bagging process is employed in glass laminating to apply even pressure during bonding. Vacuum bags apply even pressure up to atmospheric pressure, 14.7 lbs. per square inch (2,000 lbs. per square foot). This predictable and consistent pressure application consolidates laminates.

PREPREG / AUTOCLAVE: The moulding of pre-impregnated fabrics and film infused fabrics typically requires the use of elevated temperatures and vacuum consolidation under a vacuum bag in either Oven or Autoclave.
