Centrifugalstøbning
Centrifugalstøbning is a casting process that utilizes centrifugal force to distribute molten metal into a rotating mold. The mold is typically a hollow cylinder, which spins rapidly around its longitudinal axis. Molten metal is poured into the spinning mold, and the centrifugal force presses the metal outwards against the mold's inner surface. This action ensures that the metal fills the mold completely and forms a dense, uniform casting. As the metal solidifies, the centrifugal force continues to play a role in creating a sound structure with fewer defects.
The process is particularly well-suited for producing hollow cylindrical parts such as pipes, tubes, bushings, and
