In this process step, the Ktitor KCCO composite curing oven is utilized for curing composite parts or pressure vessels. The process includes preheating to remove moisture, loading the part into the oven, heating to the desired curing temperature, soaking for optimal resin curing, controlled cooling to minimize stresses, and unloading after quality inspections.
The Ktitor composite curing oven is essential for crafting high-pressure vessels for CNG and H2 (Type IV). Following plastic liner molding, the process progresses to filament winding, where fibers are precisely applied to the liner. This automated procedure ensures uniform fiber placement on the rotating mandrel, facilitating efficient production.
