The qualified VAP^® membrane system C2003 developed by Trans-Textil acts as the basis of the three-dimensional custom-shaped membranes developed as part of the AZIMUT and RoCK aviation projects. Custom-shaped system components facilitate lay-up handling and deliver significant time and costs savings in the fabrication of complex integral assemblies on the basis of tailor-made vacuum bags produced with the help of innovative joining techniques. Following the official start of the RoCK project, Trans-Textil GmbH and its partners are now concerned with streamlining the industrial-scale VAP^® process still further.
