The use of compression molding in high volume, high quality composite parts production is featured prominently in this Compression Molding program. The various sheet, thick and bulk molding compounds are detailed as well as mold types used.
Quality tooling is a fundamental requirement for the manufacture of composite parts. This is due to the fact that every step in the composite part manufacturing process must be tightly controlled to ensure superior material properties and predictable performance in the final product.This program explores the composite materials used for tooling and tooling design.
Most composite parts and components require some type of post fabrication and or joining for finishing. This program examines the various methods used to cut, saw, rout, and drill composites effectively. The use of adhesives and mechanical fasteners to join separate composite components is also explored in detail.
This Composite Materials program features a detailed explanation of the important mechanical properties of thermoset fiber-reinforced composites.
