Bladder Molding by Rock West Composites
Bladder molding is a process used for creating organic hollow shapes out of composite materials, typically prepregs. Bladder molding typically requires matched female molds and is usually performed using carbon fiber pre-preg, a fiber reinforcement that is pre-impregnated with epoxy resin and requires heat to harden.

Resin Transfer Molding Process
Using our resistant capacitive high-pressure, high-temperature sensors, you can ensure the preform blanks are given their required stiffness in advance of the resin injection process. These sensors monitor that the mold is completely filled with resin and ensure that the blank joins with the resin. Their high degree of ruggedness…
