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.
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. The transfer molding process, which is a technological extension of compression molding is also highlighted. This program is part of an eight program Composites Manufacturing series.
