Ensuring the quality of composites – by optimizing RTM process monitoring and control

In lightweight component production, optimal processing of fiber composites (e.g. carbon) is essential for success. The resin transfer molding (RTM) process harbors potential for large-scale industrial manufacture so that component production becomes cost-effective.

Comprehensive, dependable monitoring of the pressure inside the cavity – including upstream mold evacuation – is the key to controlling the RTM process and ensuring the required level of reliability. Thanks to our piezoelectric or piezoresistive pressure sensors and charge amplifiers, stable control of cavity pressure and thus of composite part quality, is guaranteed.
