For high strength, high quality parts manufactured with Vacuum Infused Molding, turn to MFG Union City.

Vacuum Infused Molding – or Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding – is molding performed with pressure assistance inside the cavity of a closed mold. At MFG Union City, our Vacuum Infused Molding is used to manufacture ballistic panels, inner structure reinforcements, prototypes and wind turbines.

We find that the key benefits of Vacuum Infused Molding include:

  • Flexible tooling
  • No trimming
  • Less investment cost
  • Lower ventilation costs
  • Better control of glass ratio

Vacuum Infused Molding at MFG Union City

Once the resin is cured, we remove the part from the rigid mold, producing a uniform composite part.

In addition to Vacuum Infused Molding, MFG Union City also has expert capabilities in:
