Abstract

This article is devoted to the production of three-layer fiberglass pipes using continuous winding with low-frequency vibration applied to the mandrel. A set of physical models describing the influence of vibration parameters on structure-formation processes and curing kinetics is substantiated. It is shown that selection frequency and amplitude of vibration allows for a significant reduction in residual porosity without compromising the homogeneity of the composite. The developed approach provides a scientific basis for the engineering design of vibration modules and ensures improved quality, reliability, and competitiveness of pipe products with minimal additional energy consumption.
