Vacuum bagging is a clamping system used for laminating a wide range of
fabrics, core materials and veneers. It offers many advantages over conventional
clamping. For repairs and composite construction, it uses atmospheric pressure
to deliver firm even clamping pressure over the entire surface area, regardless
of the type or quantity of material being laminated. By laminating over simple
molds, composites can be molded into a wide range of functional shapes.

002-150 Vacuum Bagging Techniques
The venturi generator develops over 20 inches Hg (mercury) of vacuum (10
psi). It is designed to run off of conventional shop air compressors delivering
at least 65 psi at 3.5 SCFM. At 0 inches Hg it will evacuate 2.2 SCFM. The
operating range is 40 psi - 100 psi.
