I have cnc a 2 piece alum mould and would like to do infusion through it... the part is 900mm long x 120mm x11 mm and will have 3 different kinds of carbon in it. Is it possible to pull through it
I have cnc a place for a gasket around the rim of the mould , put placement for inlet port and outlet port.
the way I have been doing it is a wet prepreg hand lay into moulds putting the two pieces together and pressing it in my heated press. Finish isn't there and needs too much hand work in the end.
so my goal is to do a dry lay up in the alum moulds put them together , put them in the press under 5ton of pressure , pull resin , bump the press up to 40 ton and hit it with heat to cure the resin.
I am using heat cured resin so the parts will not deform in the sun on the beach. Resin cures in I hr at 180 degrees.
any advice would be great...
thank in advance
