Fibreglass vacuum moulding.

This video shows a simple closed mould vacuum process, this technique is more beneficial to the GRP moulder if runs from 100+ are needed, expected life of tooling 3,000 - 5,000 lifts.
During an eight hour cycle 7 parts can be produced, depending upon complexity of moulding.

Hi there,

I like to know, what kind of safety measures need to be applied in such process? especially when working with fiberglass and resin. What are the related codes if any?....thanks.

Hi, data sheets are available on all products and appropriate measures are taking with PPE, the company demonstrating the video have thier own policy, sorry for being so vague but if you read msds on products you will be able to view precautions needed, best rgds

Hi, Originally the idea came from a company called Resin Industries and it was called Prestovac system, it operates on Vacuum with a single venturi pump, this company who we visited adapted it for thier own use and make these 'components' with them, hope you enjoyed the video, kindest rgds
