Estimating the term…
A method for manufacturing a part comprises the following steps: providing a molding element (100) and an airtight flexible sheet (200) consisting of a film comprising a dry layer (201) of a paint-type material integral with a backing (202) provided with anchoring arrangements on the side opposite to the layer of paint-type material, the backing facing towards the molding element and the sheet being unsupported and peripherally connected to the rigid molding element in an airtight manner so that they between them define a molding zone the shape of which is generally defined by the molding element, introducing a solidifiable molding material in a viscous state into the molding zone, prior to, simultaneously with or subsequent to said introduction of the molding material, applying a vacuum (120-122) in the molding zone, causing the molding material (R) to solidify, and extracting from the molding zone an article (P) comprising the solidified molding material in which the film is anchored, where the dry layer of paint-type material of said film is exposed to the outside.
A method for manufacturing a part, comprising the following steps:
A facility for manufacturing a component with a molding material, comprising:
The use of a pre-constituted film of a dry layer of a paint-type material anchored in a backing provided with anchoring arrangements on the side opposite to the layer of paint-type material, for its application against a face of a part opposite a mold element while being unsupported, in order to define between the film and the mold element, on their own, a sealed molding space into which molding material can be introduced and in which vacuum can be applied.
