Zusammenfassung:	Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to systems and methods for manufacturing an airfoil component. The system can include: a geometrical mold (10); an elongated flexible sleeve (20) having a closed-off interior (22) and positioned within the geometrical mold, wherein the elongated flexible sleeve is further positioned to have a desired geometry; an infusing channel (30) in fluid communication with the closed-off interior of the elongated flexible sleeve and configured to communicate a resinous material thereto; a vacuum channel (40) in fluid communication with the closed-off interior (22) of the elongated flexible sleeve and configured to vacuum seal the closed-off interior of the elongated flexible sleeve; and a glass fiber layer (50) positioned within the closed-off interior of the elongated flexible sleeve.
