This is Part A
of a two-part program on Composite Materials.
See Part A
Topics:
| Resin Transfusion |
Filament Winding |
| Resig Transfer |
Continuous Profile |
| Compression Moulding (sheet) |
Bulk Casting |
| Compression Moulding (dough moulding) |
Centrifugal Casting |
| Pultrusion |
|
The video examines 8 methods of
production – resin infusion, resin transfer
moulding, compression moulding, pultrusion,
filament winding, continuous profile, bulk casting
and centrifugal casting.
The advantages, limitations and
areas of application for each process are examined,
together with typical properties of the materials
used in each process.
Content would benefit 1) beginners who need
to know basics of several technologies, 2) engineering
students interested in the composite manufacturing
processes, 3) new employees of composite processing
companies, 4) practicing design engineers who
are considering moving into design of composite
articles, 5) high schools/vocational schools
and community colleges for use in a manufacturing
overview course, and, 6) marketing personnel.
The video covers thermoset processing only.
(This product was reviewed and approved by members
of SPE’s Composites Division.)
The double CD pack of each program
has been specially designed for the teaching
situation and induction of staff into the workplace.
One CD is a VCD of the program playable on a
DVD player. The second CD consists of the script
and a PowerPoint presentation of the computer
graphics ideal for class notes and lecture theatre
plus an Mpeg version of the program ideal for
the office situation. These features are all
self-installing.
Video was a collaborative effort
by Monash University, Composites Institute of
Australia, Inc., Cooperative Research Centre
for Advanced Composite Structures, Ltd., Institute
of Materials Engineering Australasia, Ltd.,
and the Dept. of Industry, Science & Technology,
AusIndustry, Business Victoria. Produced by
Double D Technical Productions.
