Fiberglass Spray Lay-up Process

Fiberglass Spray Lay-up Process

Fibreglass spray lay-up process is very different from the hand lay-up process. The difference comes from the application of the fibre and resin material to the mould. Spray-up is an open-moulding composites fabrication process where resin and reinforcements are sprayed onto a reusable mould. The resin and glass may be applied separately or simultaneously "chopped" in a combined stream from a chopper gun. Workers roll out the spray-up to compact the laminate. Wood, foam, or other core material may then be added, and a secondary spray-up layer embeds the core between the laminates. The part is then cured, cooled, and removed from the mould.

Famous quotes containing the words spray and/or process:

    I discovered
    the colors in the wall that woke
    when spray from the hose
    played on its pocks and warts....
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Consumer wants can have bizarre, frivolous, or even immoral origins, and an admirable case can still be made for a society that seeks to satisfy them. But the case cannot stand if it is the process of satisfying wants that creates the wants.
    John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
