ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus to form a long, thin laminated strip of plastic, metal and fiberglass. The uncured laminate will be laid up in a housing which has sidewalls and a base. A partition is placed over the laminate. The partition seals to sidewalls of the housing and is movable relative to the housing. The partition divides the cavity of the housing into an upper section and a lower section. The lower section is evacuated. Gas or fluid pressure is applied to the upper section. Heat is applied to the housing to cure the laminate while the pressure is maintained. Tension is applied longitudinally to the laminate during the process.
