What Does VARTM Stand For?

VARTM stands for Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding

VARTM, or Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding, is a composite manufacturing process that involves the infusion of resin into a fibrous material, typically fiberglass or carbon fiber, under vacuum pressure. This technique enhances the consolidation of the fibers, reduces air entrapment, and ensures uniform resin distribution, resulting in high-quality composite structures with improved mechanical properties and surface finishes. VARTM is widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and marine for producing lightweight and strong components.
