EFFICIENT IMPLEMENTATION OF THE RESIN TRANSFER MOLDING PROCESS WITH EPOXY RESIN IS GREATLY INFLUENCED BY THE MACHINERY USED FOR THE PROCESS. MANY THERMOSETTING MATERIALS ARE NOW BEING MODIFIED FOR USE IN THE RTM PROCESS. METERING RATIOS CAN RANGE FROM 1:200 THROUGH 1:1 AND THE VISCOSITIES AT ROOM TEMPERATURE CAN VARY FROM 100 CENTIPOISE TO 10,000 CENTIPOISE. THIS PAPER OFFERS SPECIFIC GUIDELINES TO THE MANUFACTURING ENGINEER WHO IS SELECTING AN RTM EQUIPMENT PACKAGE PROPERLY CONFIGURED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE SELECTED RESIN.
