A method for welding at least two parts including a thermoplastic material and having respective surfaces to be welded, including: inserting an insert between the surfaces to be welded of the two parts; generating heat via the insert; wherein the insert moves in relation to the parts to be welded in a welding direction. Also, an installation adapted for implementation of the method.

The present invention relates to an impregnation process for a fibrous substrate, a liquid composition for implementing this process and the obtained impregnated fibrous substrate. The impregnated fibrous substrate is suitable for manufacturing mechanical or structured parts or articles. In particular the present invention deals with an industrial process for impregnating a fibrous substrate or long fibers with a viscous liquid composition containing mainly methacrylic or acrylic components. This viscous composition is called hereafter liquid (meth) acrylic syrup. The invention concerns also a fibrous substrate pre-impregnated with said syrup which is useful for manufacturing mechanical or structured parts or articles. More particular the impregnation of fibrous substrate with the (meth) acrylic syrup is achieved in a closed mould. The present invention concerns also manufacturing process for manufacturing mechanical or structured parts or articles and three-dimensional mechanical or structured parts obtained by this process.

Molding device for the manufacture of composite components from liquid polymer resin by high-pressure injection

A method for manufacturing a composite part including a fibrous reinforcement and a thermoplastic polymer matrix, which includes the steps of i) depositing the fibrous reinforcement in a two-part mold having a seal compressible by evacuating said mold having no vent, ii) filling the evacuated mold by injecting, in the molten state, a two-component reactive system made of a reactive thermoplastic prepolymer, the injection being carried out using a device having two distinct compartments for each one of the two reactive components mixed in a static mixer, followed by a compression and compaction of the content of the mold, and iii) removing the part from the mold, without any finishing treatment. Further, a device for implementing said method, to the resulting part and to the use of said method in an 'in-mold' assembly method.

A compacting and injection mold for a fiber preform is for use in fabricating a turbine engine guide vane out of composite material. The mold includes a shell forming a trough that is to receive the fiber preform and that is closed in leaktight manner by bottom and top covers, compacting blocks arranged inside the trough each having a surface pressing normally against a surface of the fiber preform that is to be compacted, and closure blocks arranged inside the trough. Each closure block has a surface pressing normally against a surface of a compacting block and does not have a surface in contact with the fiber preform.
