Construction preparation
- Material and tool preparation: Prepare carbon fiber unidirectional prepreg, release agent, cutting tools (such as scissors or special knives), scrapers, vacuum bags and sealing strips, vacuum pumps, etc. Ensure that the material quantity is sufficient and the tools are intact.
- Mold preparation: The mold should be clean and smooth, free of oil, dust and other impurities. Apply a release agent on the mold surface to facilitate demolding after subsequent prepreg molding. The application should be uniform to avoid local demolding difficulties.
Prepreg cutting
- According to the design requirements and mold size, use a cutting tool to cut the carbon fiber unidirectional prepreg into a suitable shape and size. Pay attention to the neat edges during cutting, and try to avoid fiber breakage or burrs, as this may affect the mechanical properties of the final product.
Laying prepreg
- Carefully lay the cut prepreg on the mold surface according to the designed ply direction and sequence. Unidirectional prepreg has a clear fiber direction, and it is necessary to ensure that this direction is consistent with the force direction required by the product design. During the laying process, use a scraper or other tool to gently squeeze the prepreg to expel air so that the prepreg fits tightly to the mold surface to avoid wrinkles or bubbles.
Vacuum packaging
- After laying the prepreg, use a vacuum bag to package the mold and prepreg. Cover the prepreg with a vacuum bag and seal the edges with a sealing strip to ensure that the vacuum bag is airtight. Then use a vacuum pump to extract the air in the vacuum bag to form a vacuum environment. This helps to further remove the air in the prepreg, so that the prepreg fits the mold more closely during the curing process, and is also conducive to the uniform distribution of the resin.
Curing treatment
- According to the curing characteristics of the resin in the prepreg, place the encapsulated mold in a suitable curing equipment (such as an autoclave or oven) for curing. During the curing process, parameters such as temperature, time and pressure must be strictly controlled. For example, the temperature usually needs to be raised, kept constant and lowered according to the curing curve provided by the resin supplier, and the time must also be accurately controlled to ensure that the resin is fully cured and the carbon fiber prepreg forms a stable structure.
Demolding and post-processing
- After the curing is completed, wait for the mold to cool to the appropriate temperature and demold the molded carbon fiber product from the mold. After demolding, some post-processing may be required for the product, such as trimming the edges, polishing the surface, etc., to obtain a final product that meets the requirements.
