PVSensor for use with film infusion
The larger PTFE Sensor body is easily attached to
the chosen zone by sealing it onto the film allowing it to
communicate with the cavity through a minute hole pierced in the
film. In use the PVSensor first gives accurate confirmation that
full vacuum has been achieved below the film prior to the start of
the infusion, it is then able to detect and indicate the small
differences in pressure present as the resin passes the sensor
point.
With such a system it is now possible to accurately
monitor both the low pressures associated with film infusion. - This
now leads to the real possibility of employing machinery that will
mix on demand and deliver resin to the delicate film covered
mould. |
