Resin infusion companies specialize in helping customers successfully implement and optimize vacuum infusion for composite manufacturing processes, with the goal of helping manufacturers reduce cost by eliminating hand layup and providing greater fiber/resin ratios in laminates, making way for fabrication of lightweight, strong parts such as boats, wind turbine blades, bridge beams and building cladding panels. Once the dry fabric layup is complete, surface flow media (infusion mesh, shade cloth or a combination product like Compoflex) is added as surface flow media. A vacuum bag is then attached to the mold for ease of removal from it while an Enkafusion feed side manifold (spiral wrap or elevated feed) supplies resin into flow medium through vacuum hoses leading from said manifold all around your part with breaks as necessary for resin break-off. Infusion requires the use of specific resin and core materials that have been specially tailored to work effectively together in the system. The resin must have low viscosity for easy flow through laminates with high pressure gradients, while its high permeability must permit passage easily through laminate and core materials – fibre size and weave/layup style have an impactful influence over how permeable your laminates will become. With infusion, it is possible to laminate both skins and a foam or balsa core simultaneously in one step. carbon fiber infusion Open molding and hand layup require separate core bonding putty application; infusion allows you to rely on the resin that fills reinforcement fibers as an anchoring force and to bonding the core as part of its core bonding function.
