Vacuum Bagging a Carbon Fiber/Composite Part - Complete Video

Описание: Using the fiberglass mold created in another video, we demonstrate the vacuum bagging process by forming a carbon fiber part. Originally, this video was only available to subscribers of our newsletter. This is no longer a requirement (although please free free to subscribe anyway).

00:00 - Introduction to Vacuum Bagging
00:25 - Preparing The Mold
01:36 - Introducing & Cutting The Materials
04:17 - Testing The Vacuum Chamber
04:51 - Mixing The Epoxy Resin
05:25 - Building The Carbon Fiber Laminate
07:06 - Building The Vacuum Bag
11:54 - Demolding The Part
12:58 - Finishing The Part
13:25 - Constructing a Beaver Tail (Alternative Resin Trap)

This is an updated version of the video originally entitled Vacuum Bagging
a Composite Part. We’ve gone back to increase the resolution, correct the color; plus update the graphics and add some clarifying content.
