I explore autoclaves and other industrial thermal processing equipment, including their role in composite manufacturing. My articles explain process terminology and equipment considerations, helping readers organise questions about product requirements, supporting systems, and the documentation needed to discuss a proposed manufacturing route.
Prepreg Autoclave Curing: Vacuum Bagging to Final Cure Walkthrough
Getting a carbon fiber part out of the mold with the right void content isn’t luck. Prepreg carbon fiber autoclave curing is the process of turning a stack of sticky, resin-rich prepreg sheets into a rigid component using a precisely…
Autoclave vs Out-of-Autoclave Composite Manufacturing: Trade-offs
Updated July 2026. Autoclave composite manufacturing is the process of curing prepreg composite parts inside a heated, pressurized steel vessel, and the out-of-autoclave (OOA) cure it competes with produces the same prepreg material into the same aerospace-grade parts – what…
Aerospace Composite Autoclave: A Buyer’s Guide to Sizing, Specs, and Certification
Updated July 2026. An aerospace autoclave is a pressure-vessel heated-enclosure that cures lightweight composite aircraft parts using a specific thermal and pressure profile. Visually it may resemble the big steel cylinders you might associate with surgical sterile processing (in fact…
