Investigation of Parameters Effect Resin Movement Velocity at Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding Method (VARTM)
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper, Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding (VARTM) method was simulated by analytical solution. Then the effect of parameters like fiber density, distribution of layer thickness, perform layer thickness, resin viscosity was investigated theoretically. Obtained results show that by selecting optimum distribution layer thickness, increasing fiber volume fraction, reducing viscosity of resin, maximum speed could be achieved in the process in such a way by optimizing these parameters the production speed will be improved.

full textDirect Adaptive Control of Resin Transfer Molding
Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) is a manufacturing process that involves injection of liquid resin into a closed mold cavity containing preset fiber mats and a subsequent curing stage. Mold filling is a crucial stage for quality part productions. In order to automate production and minimize the formation of defects, control of mold filling is needed. In this paper, direct adaptive control strategy...
