As I understand it, you don't do it all at one because you don't want to soak the honeycomb with resin, and to keep things as light as possible with the minimum/correct amount of resin in the right places.

So when you wet out the fiberglass over the honeycomb, none of that resin filled in the holes in the honeycomb? I'm new to this and am shopping for appropriate honeycomb materials for a motorcycle seat, which will really be quite similar to what you're building here.

I noticed you used the vacuum bags that are used to storage clothes in .I'm currently using them to bag some wet lay up carbon so they don't have a full vacuum but still get pushed into corners. I'm thinking about going to use vacuum infusion with a vacuum pump .Could these storage bags be used to vacuum infuse parts as wel ?It would be easier since my mold doesn't have a large enough flange to apply the sealant tape .

So a couple questions, 1. the epoxy then Nomex, then vacuum that was really just to apply pressure while it cured, yes? 2. The lay up was filmed backwards wasn't it :-) 3. The laminating resin for the fibre glass. So the vacuum on this, does it draw any of it into the Nomex? I guess it would. but its not like a full resin supply. This creates the barrier to the carbon resign in fussion, yes? 4. Also how thick is the Nomex, would it have been stronger if you did it on the sides as well?
@MatthieuLibeert9 жыл бұрын
***** attentive viewer! I like that ;) correct on every point! about point 3. it might be some resin was pushed in the Nomex but not mucht, fiberglass was saturated to a minimum on a plastic sheet then transfered on the nomex, then bagged to remove any excess resin left. This does create a barrier if you would like to do an infusion on top, I did this part with regular vacuumbagging, but an infusion would be ideal. point 4. the nomex was 2mm if I'm correct, using this on the sides would work as well but the nomex is at it's strongest on horizontal stress (do you know what I mean?)

Hello there, In my working environment, they made me understand, that the key role of a good & smooth finished carbon fiber part is THE MOULD. Knowledge for carbon fiber and resin exists, but the problem is allways on manufacturing a good mould. As I said, in the work, many carbon fiber parts come with small dents; the main reason is a mould, which does not supress the part properly and air goes between carbon and the mould. I would ask you to give emphasys on mould shaping and manufacturing ( materials, process, finishing ). Allready subscriped my man!!!

mixing fiberglass + carbon fiber is not a good idea, it's not nearly as strong as you think. Different elongation, so the fiberglass adds very little strength prior to carbon fiber breaking, as carbon is much more stiff material and has very little elongation before break. Carbon has 1.4% and Glass 4%+ if i recall correctly, which results that only 1/4 of the glass strength adds to carbon before carbon cracks.

Why did you let the nomex fill with resin, thus eliminating all of its structural properties? You need to use prepreg with nomex...
@allana8468 жыл бұрын
Pre preg is best for use with nomex but can be done with wet layup if the resin is spread and all excess is rolled out of the cloth before putting onto the nomex, although still not as ideal as pre preg

What about a vacuum bag system for hollow stuff with also a balloon inside the hollow space for internal pressure for the hollow space. Cool. Maybe latex pressure bag. LOL

Why not Carbon Fibre is applied directly on Nomex honeycomb i.e Why Glass fibre is placed between Nomex honeycomb and carbon fibre ?

How do you know how much resin you need to apply to a part? Nice workshop at the IDC btw ;-)
@MatthieuLibeert9 жыл бұрын
+Jonas Deman correct, IDC. you can make a rough estimation by weighing the fabric and using the same amount in weight as the fabric for the resin and add a little bit more. It's not exact sience its more of experience

Love it! Thank you! Do you know how honeycomb affects a sound? Let's say I want to implement it in making musical instrument, how much acoustics would differ from an instrument made of wood? What would be your perspective on this matter? Thank you!

But the bottom layer of the seat is under tension when someone sits on it, you need your strongest material on the bottom not the top.

If you see the top of the seat you will see two small dents, probably he will make holes and use screws.
