Abstract:A new type of centrifugal casting process is developed using conventional high-speed centrifuge. Developed process has characteristic of huge centrifugal acceleration of up to several thousand G during the casting. Alumina molds, compacted by high-speed centrifugal compaction and slightly sintered to porous bodies, are used. Alumina molds must be soaked completely into molten metal during casting, since by such configuration the pressure around the molds is balanced as quasi-isotropic hydraulic pressure to pre… Show more
