Record 1 2015-03-10

English

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
DEF

A method of sheet forming in which the plastic sheet is clamped in a stationary frame, heated, and drawn down by a vacuum into a mold.

CONT

vacuum molding: After the plastic sheet has been heated a vacuum pump is used to pull the heated sheet into the mold.

OBS

In a broad sense, the term [vacuum forming] is sometimes used to refer to all sheet-forming techniques, including drape forming involving the use of vacuum and stationary molds.

OBS

thermoforming: forming of thermoplastic sheet by heating it and then putting it down onto a mold surface to shape it.

OBS

vacuum forming: term standardized by ISO.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Plasturgie
DEF

Procédé de thermoformage, selon lequel le vide est utilisé pour mettre une feuille chauffée en forme en l'appliquant contre la surface du moule.

CONT

Le formage sous vide consiste à déposer une feuille de plastique préalablement chauffée sur un moule mâle ou femelle.

OBS

thermoformage : Technique de mise en forme des matières plastiques pour modification, sous l'action de la chaleur, d'une préforme (feuille, plaque).

OBS

formage sous vide : terme normalisé par l'ISO.

Record 3 2012-02-03

English

Subject field(s)
  • Plastics Manufacturing
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
CONT

Vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) is likely the most common acronym of all used in the discussion of low pressure closed mold reinforced composite molding ... It should be noted ... that VARTM simply means to add vacuum at the exit vent of the molding tool, thus any form of resin transfer molding in which vacuum is applied to the vent would qualify for the VARTM association.

OBS

vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM): This variation has been used to refer to either RTM with vacuum assist or vacuum infusion. Vacuum processes are not RTM, and vacuum assisted RTM is a minor variation on the theme [Resin Transfer Molding].

OBS

... the most common applications are for automotive, marine, industry, and recreational markets, [as well as in aeronautical engineering].

Key term(s)
  • vacuum-assisted resin injection
  • vacuum-assisted RTM

French

Domaine(s)
  • Plasturgie
  • Aérotechnique et maintenance
CONT

Les chercheurs du CTFA [Centre des technologies de fabrication en aérospatiale] mènent des études sur les technologies de moulage par transfert de résine (RTM), de moulage par transfert de résine sous vide (VARTM), et d'infusion de pellicule de résine (RFI) [...] Avec les technologies RTM et VARTM, les couches de fibres sèches pré-coupées sont placées dans des moules qui sont scellés et auxquels on injecte la résine avant de polymériser. Avec la technologie VARTM, on applique un vide pour débarrasser le moule de l'air qu'il contient et entraîner la résine, alors qu'avec la technologie RTM, on injecte la résine dans le moule sous pression.
