A casting technique whereby molten metal is thrust into a mold by centrifugal force. 2, record 1, English, - centrifugal%20casting
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The inertia forces of rotation distribute the molten metal into the mold cavities during the centrifugal casting, of which there are three categories: true centrifugal casting, semi-centrifugal casting, and centrifuging. The first two processes produce hollow cylindrical shapes and parts with rotational symmetry, respectively. In the third process the mold cavities are spun at a certain radius from the axis of rotation; the centrifugal force thus increases the pressure in the mold cavity. 3, record 1, English, - centrifugal%20casting

The most common method is by means of a spring-driven arm supporting a crucible and mold flask. 2, record 1, English, - centrifugal%20casting

[Proceso que] consiste en verter el material fundido en un molde (generalmente cilíndrico), donde la fuerza centrífuga hará su trabajo haciendo que el material fundido se acomode o tome la forma de las paredes del molde, teniendo así un acabado más uniforme y más denso que en otros tipos de coladas. 1, record 1, Spanish, - fundici%C3%B3n%20centr%C3%ADfuga

La fundición por colada centrífuga es un proceso que se utiliza para producir piezas cilíndricas simétricas respecto a un eje. [...] Como su nombre lo indica, este proceso utiliza las fuerzas de inercia (causadas por un movimiento de rotación) para distribuir el metal fundido en las cavidades del molde. [...] La colada centrífuga se clasifica ya sea por la configuración del proceso, es decir, colada centrífuga horizontal o colada centrífuga vertical y por el método utilizado en dicho proceso, los cuales son tres: centrífugo real, semi-centrífugo y centrífugo. 1, record 1, Spanish, - fundici%C3%B3n%20centr%C3%ADfuga
