Digital Demo: Secure Vacuum Bag Seal Eliminates Single-Use Sealant Tapes in Closed Mold Process
Magnum Venus Products (MVP) has developed a reusable two-part seal for the vacuum infusion closed mold process, replacing single-use sealant tapes. (Sponsored)
The current infusion process, vacuum infusion process (VIP), requires sealant tapes—commonly known as tacky tape—to secure plastic bagging around the perimeter of the mold. Tacky tape is a consumable (meaning it can only be used once) and it is labor-intensive to apply due to the folds of the bag causing pleating and leading to air leaks. The SVB Seal eliminates pleating and creates an air-tight seal with every part. In addition to reducing consumable waste, one SVB Seal can be used to build hundreds of parts before needing to be replaced, resulting in significant cost savings for manufacturers.
