Composites 101: Tooling
Composite parts are formed in molds, also known as tools. Tools can be made from virtually any material. The material type, shape and complexity depend upon the part and length of production run. Here's a short summary of the issues involved in electing and making tools.

Tooling for composites: Evolutionary trajectory
New technologies and improved methods keep up as tools get bigger and more complex and toolmaking gets ever more challenging.

Mold heating study proves pressurized water system
Westminster Solutions and SINGLE Temperature Controls partner to create an RTM cell that heats the mold more efficiently with pressurized water rather than with a conventional oil heating system..
