    In the following work we will focus on the elaboration and characterization of the search for new hybrid and low weight sandwich materials, using different configurations in the reinforcement stacking. In order to achieve a reduction in weight and facilitate the elaboration, an epoxy resin reinforced with chambira fiber woven with kevlar fiber was used, taking into account the number of layers and positions to be worked, using the vacuum resin infusion method and its impact on the mechanical properties, for the specimens a curing at different temperatures and laser cutting with CO2 was performed. The Box-Behnken design method based on response surfaces was used, which allows the input of three continuous factors with their levels respectively, which are detailed as follows: Fiber Orientation 1 and Orientation 2 between 45, 0 and -45 degrees and curing temperature with 60, 90 and 120 degrees Celsius. At the time of the design, the number of treatments to be carried out was specified and in the mechanical tests of each sample, an analysis of the data was made and organized and validated in order to have their mechanical properties. The tests performed on the specimens yielded several results which helped to determine the most optimal configuration of the layers.
