Centrifugal casting or rotary casting is a casting technique commonly used for casting thin-walled cylinders. Used for casting metal, glass,concrete and other materials.Unlike most other casting techniques, centrifugal casting is primarily used to make standard-sized blanks for further processing.
The centrifugal casting process uses a mold which is fixed to a motor on an axis to rotate it at high speeds. The speed of rotation depends on the metal to be cast and the shape required. This method is mainly used for the production of cylindrical components. As the motor rotates, the metal gets pushed towards the outer walls of the cast and solidifies.
