“…Owing to their superior specific strength modulus, carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs), particularly thermoset CFRPs, have attracted attention in various fields, such as civil infrastructures [1][2][3], vehicles [4,5], railways [6], and airplanes [7,8]. However, manufacturing CFRPs requires intricate consumption conditions, such as time, cost, and labor.…”

During vacuum-assisted resin infusion (VARI), the thickness of the fabric manufactured into carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) was monitored using electrical resistance, which was correlated with the mechanical and electrical status of the carbon fiber (CF) with respect to resin infiltration. Furthermore, the electrical network within CF varied in terms of its volume and number of electrical contacts. These phenomena were monitored by installing a Cu tape on the mold. Thus, an in-situ qualitative monitoring system for composite manufacturing was developed utilizing the electrical resistance variations in the fabric. The proposed thickness-monitoring system for VARI can potentially minimize the cost, time, and labor in composite industries.
