Air Extraction Bag for Vacuum Infusion



Air Extraction Bag for Vacuum

The Air Extraction Bag is manufactured by laminating VAP film, vacuum bag film, and flow guide mesh using a hot-melt (heat-sealing) process. It can be produced in I-shaped, T-shaped, or H-shaped configurations according to customer requirements.


Engineered for vacuum infusion applications, this product offers low production cost, high efficiency, and 100% air permeability. By optimizing airflow during the infusion process, it extends working time, prevents indentation on infused parts, and significantly improves the surface finish, consistency, and overall quality of composite components.




Key Advantages


✅ No Indentation on Infused Parts — The integrated VAP film layer regulates air evacuation and prevents resin channel marks, ensuring a smooth, defect-free surface.


✅ Extended Working Time — Optimized airflow reduces premature resin gelling and extends the operational window of your vacuum infusion system.


✅ 30–50% Labor Saving — Pre-assembled multi-layer design eliminates on-site cutting, aligning, and taping of individual consumables.


✅ Stable High-Temperature Performance — Rated for continuous use at up to 120°C (overall assembly); individual layers withstand up to 160°C.


✅ 100% Air Permeability — Flow media permeability ≥ 2 L/m²/s for rapid, uniform air removal.


✅ Improved Product Consistency — Repeatable layer structure and bonding ensure uniform quality across every infusion cycle.

How It Works


During vacuum infusion:

The air extraction bag is placed over the laminate.

The flow media allows air to move quickly toward the vacuum outlet.

The VAP film regulates air evacuation, preventing resin channel marks.

Vacuum bag film maintains negative pressure.

Resin flows evenly without leaving indentations or defects.


The result is a stable vacuum environment and smooth, defect-free composite surface.

FAQ


1. What is an Air Extraction Bag?

A: It is a pre-assembled vacuum consumable used in composite vacuum infusion, combining VAP film, vacuum bag film, and flow media into a single product to ensure smooth airflow and high-quality surface finish.


2. What temperature can it withstand?

A: The overall assembly is rated for up to 120°C. Individual layers (VAP film up to 160°C, vacuum bag film up to 150°C) offer higher temperature resistance for short durations.


3. Can the size be customized?

A: Yes. We support any length, width, or shape—including I-shaped, T-shaped, and H-shaped configurations—based on customer requirements.


4. Does it prevent print marks and indentation?

A: Yes. The integrated VAP film layer ensures zero indentation and eliminates resin channel marks on the finished composite part.


5. Can you provide samples?

Yes. Sample rolls or cut pieces are available upon request.
