Abstract
There is provided a method of producing a component of a wind turbine, in particular a wind turbine rotor blade. A winding core is provided on a rotatable shaft. A vacuum film is placed on the winding core. A component to be produced is wound on the vacuum film by means of a winding scrim. An external mold is placed around the wound component. A vacuum infusion method is carried out and the infused resin is cured. In that case a vacuum is generated between the vacuum film on the winding core and the inside of the external mold.
