Closed mould process

Raw ingredients (fibers and resin) in closed moulding cure inside a two-sided mould or a vacuum bag, sealed off from air. Most closed-moulding methods are used in large factories that produce high volumes of material, as they are typically automated and require specialized equipment.

CLOSED MOULD TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS

RTM and Vacuum Infusion equipment

Composite manufacturers attempting closed-mould processing often require extensive technical assistance to navigate the initial learning curve.

Composite Integration provides practical assistance throughout the closed-mould process, from RTM to resin infusion, covering areas such as product design optimization, material selection, tooling design and manufacturing (composite and metal), injection and infusion equipment, accessories, installation, monitoring, process control, and training.

Our team offers an unparalleled range of skills and experience, dedicated to supporting customers throughout the entire process.

The Ciject® range of injection equipment is widely recognized as the most sophisticated available, combining award-winning design with the highest quality engineering. It includes highly innovative equipment for delivering mixed resin into infusion processes.

This development is based on in-mould sensors (IMPS), which provide accurate control feedback, and the technique is now used to manufacture some of the largest composite structures in existence.

We recognize the importance of high-quality, practical training and offer both on-site and in-house training tailored to individual client needs. Composite Integration Ltd continues to expand with the support of several worldwide partners.

Staff training remains a key strategy, ensuring all personnel can respond to customer needs and ongoing advancements in the RTM process.
