How To Find, Fix, and Avoid Leaks in Vacuum Bags

Vacuum bagging is an integral part of many composites manufacturing processes, including prepreg, resin infusion and conventional vacuum consolidated hand-layup but getting vacuum bags to seal properly and reliably can be difficult and frustrating, especially for those relatively new to the process.

In this video tutorial we use our many years of experience of vacuum bagging to go through all the possible causes of leaks in vacuum bags, how to avoid them in the first place, how to test for them, how to locate them and how to fix them. We will also discuss when to give up and make the decision to re-bag a part.

Most of the tools and equipment used in the tutorial are available from Easy Composites and are listed on the video's Project Page in our Learning Area:
