METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR COMPACTING COMPOSITE PART LAYUP UTILIZING A SINGLE RELEASE FILM LAYER |
摘要 |
System and method for compacting a composite ply layup comprising a forming tool comprising a top surface and a composite ply layup laid up along the top surface of the forming tool. A single release film comprising a top surface and a bottom surface, wherein the bottom surface of the single release film comprises a first non-planar bottom surface. The first nonplanar bottom surface placed over a top surface of the composite ply layup. A venting port operatively coupled directly to the top surface of the single release film. A vacuum source operatively coupled to the venting port and configured to generate a vacuum to the single release film, such that the first non-planar bottom surface of the single release film defines a breather path for the vacuum generated by the vacuum source to distribute over the top surface of the composite ply layup. |
