What is Centrifugal Casting?
Centrifugal Casting is the powerful manufacturing process of the ring - shaped products. The molten metal is poured into the rotating mold (300~3,000RPM) and inclusion and slug are removed by centrifugal force which gives the parts excellent properties without any internal defects. According to the rotation axis of mold, the centrifugal casting process is classified as vertical type and horizontal type. Traditional centrifugal casting is horizontal type which make the parts with tube type. Our company, however, developed new technology, 'PIM KOREA's vertical centrifugal casting process' to meet the needs of our customers.
※ When pouring and solidifying the melt, the parts are produced by centrifugal force from rotating mold with high speed.
※ Microstructure is dense without porosity and it is easy to remove and separate metal inclusion by the difference of specific gravity between the parts and inclusions.
