IMPREGNATION MANDREL COMPRISING A VACUUM BAG FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A GAS TURBINE CASING FROM COMPOSITE MATERIAL

摘要

An impregnation mandrel for production of a gas turbine casing made from composite material, including: a mandrel having a central wall and two side plates; compaction bars, each including (i) a wedge configured to bear against a fibrous reinforcing part covering angles formed between the central wall and the side plates of the mandrel, and (ii) an attachment flange configured to be attached to the corresponding side plate of the mandrel; a flexible casing forming a vacuum bag and configured to be applied at least against the fibrous reinforcing part covering the central wall of the mandrel; and a mechanism for injecting resin into a space defined between the vacuum bag and the mandrel at one of longitudinal ends of the fibrous reinforcement and for extracting the resin at the opposite end.
