composties and high production rates

[liam5789]

How do the high production rates required for many standard classes of vehicles correspond to the use of such composite materials with respect to their processing characteristics when such materials are supplied in the form of pre-preg that’s must be vacuum bagged and autoclave moulded.

If anybody could help with the above I would be grateful!
