Abstract
A system for forming a composite structure includes a tool for infusing a dry preform with a resin. The tool includes a tool base and a tool lid. The tool base includes a base surface. The tool lid includes a lid surface. The system includes an adjustable stop that is positioned between the tool base and the tool lid. The base surface and the lid surface form a portion of a tool cavity. The tool lid is movable relative to the tool base to generate an internal pressure within the tool cavity. The adjustable stop controls a tool position of the tool lid relative to the tool base to achieve a predetermined value for the internal pressure.
