ABSTRACT:
A process for producing a preform includes the steps of retaining a glass fiber fabric (40) on a foraminous screen (14) by use of a vacuum draw and depositing chopped glass fibers (19) onto the glass fiber fabric with a binder that cures in place. The vacuum draw retains the deposited materials in place until the binder is cured.
