The DIAB process can cut mold cycle times by up to 50% and labor costs by 30%. It can be readily introduced using existing molds and without the need for heavy capital investment or sophisticated and expensive flow modelling software. With the DIAB system the specially grooved core not only enhances the structural performance of the composite component, but also acts as the resin transfer medium. By eliminating the requirement for sacrificial distribution mats or nets the cost of consumables and waste is significantly reduced.
In addition DIAB Core Infusion™ offers significantly higher flow rates than other infusion methods. This not only enables the production of ultra-large components in a single shot but also minimizes the number of resin feeder lines.
