Resin infusion of composite parts using a perforated caul sheet

摘要

Resin (34) infused composite parts (24) are fabricated using a caul sheet (26) having perforations (48) therein for optimizing the flow of resin (34) through the parts (24) and allowing a simplified tooling and consumable arrangement for complex parts (24) while achieving a smooth, aerodynamic caul-side or bag-side finish.
