i'm assuming you are saying that in the above pics they effectively injecting the epoxy into the carbon fiber?</TD></TR></TABLE>
Not injecting but pulling the resin through the part using vacuum pressure. Infusion is VARTM vacuum assited resin transfer molding and RTM is resin transfer molding and usually involves some type of positive pressure as well as vacuum working together to flow the part. With RTM you would use a matched male and female mold.
