PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for molding a fiber-reinforced composite material which can detect insufficient resin-impregnation. SOLUTION: In the apparatus 10 for molding the fiber-reinforced composite material, fibers such as carbon fibers are impregnated with a resin such as an epoxy resin, and the resin-impregnated fibers are wound onto a winding member to mold the fiber-reinforced composite material. A resin-impregnation device 22 has a resin-impregnation amount adjustment means for adjusting the amount of an adherent resin by passing fibers 36 impregnated with the resin through a clearance having a prescribed width and a resin weighing means for measuring the amount of the excess resin removed by the resin-impregnation amount adjustment means and detects insufficient resin-impregnation from the measured amount of the resin. The apparatus 10 has a means for measuring the amount of the excess resin removed by the resin-impregnation amount adjustment means by a flow meter. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
