A method and a manufacturing line for manufacturing wind turbine blades having a composite shell structure comprising a matrix material and a fiber reinforcement material by use of a resin transfer moulding process. The method comprises a manufacturing line, where wind turbine blades are formed in a number of moulds. Each number of moulds comprising at least a first mould part comprising a first mould cavity. The manufacturing line further comprises a gantry means movable along the manufacturing line. The method comprises the following steps: a) arranging fiber reinforcement material in the first mould cavity of a first mould using the gantry means, b) moving the gantry means along the manufacturing line to a second mould, c) supplying curable matrix material into the first mould cavity of the first mould, while substantially simultaneously arranging fiber reinforcement material in the first mould cavity of a second mould using the gantry means. The manufacturing line comprises a plurality of moulds for forming wind turbine blades. Each of the number of moulds comprising at least a first mould part comprising a first mould cavity.
A method for manufacturing wind turbine blades having a composite shell structure comprising a matrix material and a fibre reinforcement material by use of a resin transfer moulding process, characterised in that the method comprises a manufacturing line (30), where wind turbine blades are formed in a number of moulds (40, 50, 60), each of the number of moulds (40, 50, 60) comprising at least one mould part (41, 51, 61) comprising a mould cavity (42, 52, 62), wherein the manufacturing line (30) further comprises a gantry means (35) movable along the manufacturing line (30), the method comprising the following steps:
