Abstract:
1. A method for creating a vacuum setup and processing a semi-finished fiber composite into a cured fiber composite component having a non-planar surface, the method comprising the steps: positioning the semi-finished fiber composite on a molding surface of a tool so that the non-planar surface of the semi-finished fiber composite faces away from the molding surface; releasable applying an air-tight film to a plunger surface; and covering the non-planar surface of the semi-finished fiber composite by applying the film via the plunger and sealing the film with respect to the molding surface of the tool; and releasing the film from the plunger so that the film is retained on the molding surface and retracting the plunger prior to the processing of the semi-finished fiber composite into the cured fiber composite component.
