New Development of VPI Process for Large Superconducting Coils

High vacuum is required for Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VPI) process of largecoils used in cryogenic. The defects such as dry spots and over rich resins should be minimized inlarge superconducting coils used. Both sealing problems associated with the mold and over richresin problems are eliminated by using vacuum bag mold method with which we can simplify thedesign of vacuum mold.
