The application relates to an apparatus and method in relation to an in-line autoclave adapted to perform geometry. The method includes driving a layup mandrel in a process direction into an autoclave; and sealing an entrance of the autoclave shut via seals mounted at the layup mandrel. The application also relates to a system (100) comprising:an autoclave (180) defining a hollow portion (189) for receiving a layup mandrel (120); andthe layup mandrel (120) that defines a layup region (640) for a preform (170), and that includes seals (124) that seal a gap (310) between the layup mandrel (120) and the autoclave (180).
