Out-of-Autoclave (OOA) processing of composites has come a long way since its humble origins. The automotive sector is looking to processes such as high pressure RTM and press forming to give the required rate and quality of finished components, whilst the aerospace sector is using resin infusion under flexible tooling to produce primary structures.
This event will give industry and researchers the opportunity to share their experiences and challenges in OOA processes for manufacture of composite parts. The programme is now available and includes themes on flow processes, materials, preforming, manufacturing and novel heating methods.
Building on the successful “Joining of Composites” event which took place last year, The Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN) is again working in partnership with the Irish Composites Centre (IComp) and Composites UK to bring you this cross-border event.
The full programme including speakers can be seen here and to register for this event on March 15 in Belfast please visit the event registration page. Full abstracts can be viewed here.
