Specification 7.6.1 · Paper 1
Revise: Cutting and Shaping ProcessesCutting processes remove material; a bag press instead shapes and bonds thin layers.
Link a process to the feature required: sawing for cutting out parts, routing for grooves or shaped edges, mortising for a joint recess, and a bag press for curved laminated timber.
A bag press shapes and bonds layers; it does not cut timber. The adhesive must set before the pressure is released.
