 | Increased
Physical Properties: Tensile, creep, and fatigue
strength are increased over static and investment casting methods. With parts formed under pressure many times that of gravity,
parts have a finer and more dense grain structure. |
| Longer Life:
Centrifugal metal purity withstands greater overload and strain without fracture. |
| Economical:
The centrifugal process provides production of a diversity of sizes and shapes. Near net tooling can be
designed to further reduce cost on higher volume components. |
| Defects Eliminated:
Directional solidification of centrifugal castings push impurities towards the center riser area. The
result is a part free of shrinkage cavities, gas pockets and blowholes. Expensive machining time is not wasted on defective parts. |
| 3" to 50"+
Diameters: Standard tooling is available for numerous centrifugal cast diameters from 3 to more
than 50 inches. For higher volume components, near-net-shape tooling can be designed to further reduce cost. |
| Machining:
CNC turning offers quick turnarounds and high precision, with diameters held to tolerances as tight as .0005
inch. OD chucking capabilities from 1 to 56 inches and ID chucking to 59 inches allow for
turning diameters to 71 inches.
