Robot Leg Guard (2)

This part is a guard for a Biped robot. The picture on the left is the outer facing side of the part.  It is the side of the part that touches the tool during the VARTM molding process.  The picture on the right is the internal side of the part and is not seen.  It is the consumable bag surface and is by nature rough. Fabricating using this method allows for lower cost tooling since it uses a single sided tool.  The consumables in this method are more expensive so it is typically used on low volume production and development parts.
