Resin Transfer Molding (RTM) is a process used to manufacture plastic parts and components. It is a closed-mold process, meaning that the mold is filled with resin and then closed before the curing process begins. The resin is injected into the mold under pressure, and then the mold is heated to cure the resin. The process is used to produce parts with complex shapes and tight tolerances. RTM is often used in the automotive, aerospace, and medical industries, as well as for consumer products. RTM offers several advantages over other plastic molding processes, such as lower tooling costs, shorter lead times, and improved part quality. It is also a more environmentally friendly process, as it uses less energy and produces less waste than other processes. Some companies in the RTM market include Magna International, Faurecia, and Continental AG. Show Less Read more
