CENTRIFUGAL CASTING PROCESS (part 2)

metallurUncategorizedLeave a Comment

Steel casting by centrifugal is carried out by spinning the mould on a horizontal or vertical axis, the resulting centrifugal force making the molten metal fill all the cavities of the mould.

This procedure is mainly applied to mould round parts such as tubes, sleeves, bushings, rings, etc.; without any need for riveting, given that the centrifugal force projects the molten metal onto the walls of the mould, forming a tube the thickness of which will depend on the amount of metal cast.

Part of any shape can also be moulded by centrifuging when placed in moulds symmetrical relative to the axis of spin and whose supply channels are the center of the mould; the metal being fed to these channels through the running gate at the axis.
