  • Differences Between Closed Molding and Open Molding
    processes, like Resin Transfer Molding (RTM), involve injecting or spraying liquid thermosetting materials into a mold with reinforcing fibers, like fiberglass. Typical plastic molding can be done two ways: either by closed molding or open molding. In simple terms, plastic resin exposed to the atmosphere
  • RTM and RIM Material Selection for Industry Applications
    Custom thermoset molding services range across a variety of industries, each with a unique set of materials and part specifications. Both the resin transfer molding (RTM) process and reaction injection molding (RIM) process offer specific capabilities that can be applied to virtually any project
  • How to Integrate Components Into a Molded Design
    One of the advantages of custom plastic molding is the ability to easily accommodate molded-in components. From brackets or threaded inserts to attach molded plastic parts to finished equipment or cores to add structural integrity to a part, the RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) and RIM (Reaction
  • Seaming Technique for Chemically Resistant, Reusable, Vacuum Bag Material
    Design and construction of vacuum bag material is a fundamental aspect of composite fabrication with aggressive resins, such as epoxy and vinyl ester, in vacuum and channel assisted resin transfer molding processes. To achieve optimal results while maintaining the integrity of the overall assembly
  • Combining Composite Materials in Design
    For plastic molding projects, the quality and performance of a finished product start with its design. Several molding processes, like Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) and Reaction Injection Molding (RIM), are ideal for accommodating molded-in components that can improve both part quality
  • Fast-cycle CFRP Manufacturing Technologies for Automobile Applications
    cycle time in an isothermal resin transfer molding in that resin impregnation and curing take 3 min and 5 min, respectively, while mold setting and demold take 1 min each. The latter, on the other hand, is achieved by slitting continuous fibers of a fast cure unidirectional prepreg at a desired angle
  • Thermal Response Characteristics of Marine Grade Radome Composites Designed for use on Spruance Class Naval Destroyers
    25.4 mm balsa wood panels (composed of smaller, bonded balsa wood blocks of varying density) with face sheets of E-glass/vinyl ester. The face sheets were processed onto the balsa wood surfaces using vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM). All radiometric measurements were taken with cooled
