SWORL* reusable vacuum bagging systems are products of SWORL, Inc’s on-going effort to satisfy customer requirements to achieve green processes and reduce costs. SWORL reusable vacuum bags are suitable for infusion and autoclave applications. As a long term supplier to the marine, industrial fiberglass/composite and aerospace markets, SWORL, Inc identified fabricators’ needs for an improved bagging material with features including:
|
 |
 |
 |
• Green alternative to other manufacturing methods
• Ability to make larger bags faster
|
• Easy handling to reduce labor
• Improved cost efficiency compared with single-use bags or expensive closed molds
|
• VOC-free formulation which will support MACT compliance
• Ability to re-use bags multiple times
|
 |
SWORL re-usable vacuum bags meet these objectives. SWORL VOC-free silicone bags are spray made and may be re-used for building 100+ parts. The SWORL process won an Innovation Award at the 2004 IBEX Exhibition.
