There are many methods for fabricating of composite materials,
but many were developed to meet specific design or manufacturing
challenges. Selection of a method for a particular part, therefore,
will depend on the materials, the part design and end-use or
application. The following listed methods are the most commonly
used methods for facbrication of composite materials.
- Compression molding
- Open molding
- Resin infusion processes
- Cold stamping molding
- Press molding
- Contact mold
- Pressure bag molding
