[0031] The shape of the movable block 13 is basically set according to the shape of the product, in order to save materials, be light in size and not easy to deform; each movable block 13 is provided with a demolding groove 16, in order to facilitate demolding after curing, to facilitate separation of the movable block 13 from the product, to facilitate demolding of the product, and to avoid damaging the product parts.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 to Figure 16 As shown, the plurality of movable blocks 13 are respectively movable block 1 2, movable block 2 3, movable block 3 4, movable block 4 5, movable block 5 6, movable block 6 7, movable block 7 8, movable block 8 9, movable block 9 10, movable block 10 11 and movable block 11 12. The movable block 1 2, movable block 2 3, movable block 3 4, movable block 4 5, movable block 5 6, movable block 6 7, movable block 7 8, movable block 8 9, movable block 9 10, movable block 10 11 and movable block 11 12 are assembled into an integral mold according to the appearance of the product.

[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, the base assembly 1 is made of square steel to form a rectangular base, and a template 17 is arranged on the top surface of the rectangular base. The template 17 is provided with positioning holes 18 and threaded holes 19 for connecting the movable block 13 to ensure that the movable block 13 can be well positioned and tightened after being transferred to the base assembly 1, so that the position and profile of the movable block 13 are accurate; a target hole is provided on the template 17, and its function is to facilitate detection. After the movable block 13 and the base assembly 1 are combined and processed, a measuring instrument is used to detect whether its profile is accurate to ensure that the subsequently manufactured products are qualified.

[0039] Part molding: Move the tooling to the designated location and clean it. Prepare the tooling for use. Prepare the raw materials and consumables required for molding parts. The staff begins to follow the process regulations to operate the paving and lay the product within the effective mold surface of the tooling. For the local reinforcement position of the product, the on-site operator performs the paving operation based on the reinforcement position reference line on the mold and laser projection. After the overall paving is completed, place A4000, breathable felt, vacuum bag, etc. to vacuum. Check the air tightness of the tooling. If there is no problem, enter the autoclave for molding. The tooling is subjected to thermal uniformity test and air tightness test according to M8217. After passing the inspection, proceed to the next step and then carry out high-temperature molding at a temperature of 120°C, a pressure of 0.6MPa, and a time of 6-8h. The temperature conductivity and uniformity of the tooling are required to be good. When the heating and cooling rates are 1-2°C / min, the difference between the minimum and maximum should be less than 30°C; the insulation time is 5h; the cooling is 30min until the temperature drops to room temperature, and qualified products are taken out. After molding, they are taken out of the autoclave, and the tooling temperature drops to room temperature. The vacuum bag and breathable felt are removed for demolding. After the parts are demolded, the edges are cleaned and trimmed. After trimming, the parts are sent to a professional testing agency for testing, and the test data are analyzed to make an overall evaluation of the parts.
