MTI® stands for Membrane Tube Infusion and describes a suction hose wrapped with a vacuum infusion membrane.
The MTI® hose is an air-permeable and resin-blocking air evacuation tube allowing easy use and greatly simplifying the infusion process for the user.
The MTI® hose can be used for any size of component and any degree of complexity, from small lining parts to the rotor blade of a wind turbine.
The MTI® hose significantly increases process safety. The parts produced in the MTI® process are characterized by excellent laminate quality. By using the MTI® hose, even inexperienced users can succeed in producing complex parts with no porosity and pinhole surfaces, as well as fiber volumes> 50%.
The MTI® infusion process is often a cost-effective alternative to manufacturing components in an autoclave without sacrificing part quality and often offers better surface quality.
In addition, vacuum pressing can be replaced by manual lamination, which often achieves significantly higher quality parts and reduces costs without additional effort.
