Gas Injected Molds

There are many different methods to create internal pressure while processing composite components. Utilizing gas injection keeps material smaller in size when loading parts in mold, unlike mandrels. This prevents material pinching at the split line which can cause uneven wall thickness and tool wear. Applications for Gas Injection molds are usually for smaller parts and shaft-like shapes.
