    摘要: A method for manufacturing a wind turbine blade (3), comprising the steps of:
    - arranging (S2, S2') an upper mold (10, 10') on a lower mold (9, 9'), wherein a dry fiber lay-up (11, 11') is arranged in the upper mold (10, 10') or in the upper mold (10, 10') and the lower mold (9, 9'),
    - applying (S3, S3') vacuum to a space (15, 15') between the upper and lower molds (10, 10', 9, 9'), and
    - infusing (S5, S8) the dry fiber lay-up (11, 11') in the upper and/or lower molds (10, 10', 9, 9') with resin (17), wherein the resin (17) is at least partially provided (S4, S7') through at least one upper resin inlet (16, 16', 37, 38) arranged at an upper portion (29, 29') of the upper mold (10, 10').
    Having the at least one upper resin inlet of the upper mold allows to improve the vacuum-assisted resin infusion. For example, resin provided through the at least one upper resin inlet has to be raised by a smaller height to reach the top of the mold. For example, a resin flow of the resin provided through the at least one upper resin inlet is supported in a downward direction by the gravitational force.

    摘要: Method for fabricating a member in a resin-infusion-based casting process, in which at least one component (7) forming the member is infused with a resin, comprising the steps:
    - Providing a mold (1), the at least one component (7), the resin, at least one measurement device (5) and at least one sensing device (4), wherein the sensing device (4) has at least one property which changes measurably with temperature and/or when the sensing device (4, 10) comes into contact with the resin,
    - attaching the at least one sensing device (4) to an inner surface (6) of the mold (1) and/or to the component (7),
    - arranging the component (7) inside the mold,
    - providing the resin to at least one inlet (17) of the mold (1), and
    - wirelessly measuring and evaluating the property of the sensing device (4) with the measurement device (5) for monitoring a temperature and/or a distribution of the resin in the mold (1) and/or in the component (6).
