Since our beginning JinLi Composites has produced work pieces with the use of hand lay-up and the experience of these many years has given us a large know-how in this area.
A continuously growing part of the hand-laid work pieces are now produced with advantage through vacuum molding / RTM due to the growing demands to the internal environment.
Hand lay-up has among others, the following benefits:
Possibility of producing very large work pieces
Low molding costs for small series.
Thermoset and fiber reinforcement manually laminated in the mould
RTM / VARTM
Through recent years we have researched and developed several products in the RTM technology (Resin Transfer Molding), also called vacuum molding.
RTM technology has the following benefits:
Considerably lower mold costs for mold are possible
Smooth surface on both sides
Possibility for gelcoat on both sides
Tolerance stable work pieces
Environmentally sound production due to closed mould
