摘要： A tooling apparatus for manufacturing a composite structure may include a rigid outer tool for receiving a composite layup, a tubular inner vacuum bag in contact with the composite layup and defining an inner vacuum chamber, and an outer vacuum bag covering at least a portion of the rigid outer tool. The outer vacuum bag and the tubular inner vacuum bag may collectively define an outer vacuum chamber containing the composite layup. An outer bag vacuum source may be fluidly coupled to the outer vacuum bag for applying an outer bag vacuum pressure on the outer vacuum chamber. An inner bag vacuum source may be fluidly coupled to the tubular inner vacuum bag for applying an inner bag vacuum pressure on the inner vacuum chamber during application of the outer bag vacuum pressure on the outer vacuum chamber.

摘要： A vacuum bagging system may include a layer assembly defining a fluid flow channel. The layer assembly may include a contact layer mounted to a composite part positionable within an outer mold line (OML) tool. The contact layer may have a contact layer width defined by opposing contact layer side edges. The layer assembly may further include an inner layer mounted to the contact layer and having inner layer side edges located between the contact layer side edges. The fluid flow channel may extend along at least a portion of the composite part to at least one part end. The vacuum bagging system may include an internal vacuum bag positionable against the inner layer. An inner mold line (IML) tool may support the internal vacuum bag. The contact layer width may be less than an IML tool width.

摘要： A vacuum bagging system may include a layer assembly defining a fluid flow channel. The layer assembly may include a contact layer mounted to a composite part positionable within an outer mold line (OML) tool. The contact layer may have a contact layer width defined by opposing contact layer side edges. The layer assembly may further include an inner layer mounted to the contact layer and having inner layer side edges located between the contact layer side edges. The fluid flow channel may extend along at least a portion of the composite part to at least one part end. The vacuum bagging system may include an internal vacuum bag positionable against the inner layer. An inner mold line (IML) tool may support the internal vacuum bag. The contact layer width may be less than an IML tool width.
