RTM 6 RESIN SYSTEM
RTM 6 RESIN SYSTEM
(OP)
Hello,
we got some parts that we have to produce by RTM using RTM 6 resin. previously have never worked with such resin system.
this is injection/cure cycle:
1. preheat resin to 80°C
2. preheat tool to 120°C
3. start injection
4. raise temperature to 180°C
5. dwell
6. cooling
my concern is about tool heating system. can't find any god source for a tool design. the part is pretty complex.
any help will be greatly appreciated.

RE: RTM 6 RESIN SYSTEM
you should be concerned about keeping the tool and the resin just under 120 * until you have completed the resin transfer/ shot
then, only then ramping up to 180* .
A lot of these tools use hot water passages in the walls of the tooling, others use electrical heating , here is a link to such a tool in Composites Magazine.

You are judged not by what you know, but by what you can do.
