Resin Infusion composites are created using a one-sided tool and a vacuum bag to contain, what is called a “Lay Up”. The Lay Up consists of a cloth and perhaps core plus other materials. To create the composite, resins are infused with a feeder or runner system to permit resin to enter the Lay Up and flow through the fibrous material under vacuum pressure.
Transfer media and vacuum are used to infuse resin into composite parts. Nadcap Liquid Resin Processing (LRP) Accredited.
Typical Resin Infusion Applications
Resin Infusion composite applications include radomes, cowlings, fairings, enclosures, and large structural components
Resin Infusion Advantages
High fiber content and low void content
Excellent adhesion to core materials
Lower cost of raw materials versus Pre-Peg Lay Up
Minimal labor required for large components
Lower capital equipment requirements than autoclave
