The MTI® hose can be utilized for any evacuation process where spiral tubes or any other media
has been applied so far. The MTI® hose is placed around the mold-lip, like an annular piping. The
barrier effect of the membrane prevents resin entering the evacuation hose. Thus MTI® hose can
be located directly on the fiber part, e.g. at critical points or fields with material accumulation
(thicker layers). Using the MTI® hose guarantees the complete impregnation of the fabric. The
resin allocation can be arranged independently from the MTI® hose, so it is possible to
manufacture complex fiber parts by vacuum infusion. The risk of dry spots (voids) will be
remarkably reduced. The fiber to volume ratio can be exactly calculated because no resin can
escape the mold. An additional advantage; the infusion process is visible and can be monitored at
any time.
