Manufacturing Efficiency: Pultrusion is a continuous process that provides benefits over alternative composite manufacturing methods such as high volume output, lower costs, and faster lead times.
This is because of the continuous manufacturing process in which the fiber-reinforced material is pulled through the forming die.
Higher manufacturing component cost: The molds and dies used in pultrusion can be expensive.
