How to Cast a Two-Part Compression Mould for Forged Carbon Fibre
374,437
Published 2021-11-24
In this composites video tutorial we demonstrate how to create a two-part 'matched-tool' compression mould suitable for creating genuine pressure forged carbon fibre components in anticipation of our next tutorial where we will demonstrate the forged carbon fibre process itself.
In this tutorial we use a special aluminium-filled epoxy casting resin called TC80 Tool Cast to cast the two halves of a compression mould using an original injection moulded component as the pattern.

Best content ever! Really like how you show the "problems" encountered too, such as the little nibs on the draft edge, and HOW to fix it. A lot of the time, other peoples' videos will just show everything working out perfectly, leaving out the little issues that invariably come up when doing something for the first time. Thanks for taking the time to make such high quality content.
