VACUUM INTEGRITY
A small leak can become a very expensive defect.
Resin infusion and vacuum-bagged composite processes depend on a stable, controlled vacuum. Small leaks can be difficult to detect on an analog dial, especially when the pressure change is gradual.
The DVS-G gives operators a clear digital reading so subtle vacuum movement is easier to identify during bag checks, drop tests and process verification.
