Abstract Advantages and disadvantages based on comprehensive analysis of the autoclave and vacuum assisted
resin infusion (VARI) have been discussed and synthesized. The new process combined autoclave with VARI has been developed.
The quality of product produced by the new process has been evaluated and compared with VARI, including fiber
volume fraction and thickness. The results show that the product manufactured by the new process present more excellent
mechanical properties and less porosity or resin enrichment. In addition, fiber volume fraction of the product by new process
can up to 60%. The longer holding time is, the higher the fiber volume fraction will be, until it reaches a certain value.
