A centrifugal casting machine is a device used to produce cylindrical parts by pouring molten metal into a rotating mold. The centrifugal force pushes the molten metal against the mold walls, ensuring a uniform distribution and solidification of the metal. This method is used for manufacturing pipes, bushings, bearings, and other cylindrical components.
• The machine rotates at high speeds, creating centrifugal force.
• This force ensures the molten metal is evenly distributed along the mold’s inner surface.
• The centrifugal force pushes the metal to the outer edges, resulting in a uniform wall thickness.
• This process reduces the likelihood of porosity and defects.
• Molds can be made from various materials such as sand, graphite, or metal.
• The choice of mold material depends on the type of metal being cast and the desired surface finish.
• Precise temperature control is essential to ensure proper melting and solidification of the metal.
• Many machines are equipped with advanced temperature control systems.
• The mold is mounted horizontally and rotates around a horizontal axis.
• Commonly used for casting long cylindrical parts like pipes and tubes.
• The mold is positioned vertically and rotates around a vertical axis.
• Suitable for shorter cylindrical parts, such as rings, bushings, and gear blanks.
• Used for smaller parts, often in jewelry making.
• The mold is placed in a centrifuge that spins at high speeds to distribute the molten metal.
