Centrifugal casting or
rotocasting is a
casting technique that is typically used to cast thin-walled cylinders. It is used to cast such materials as metal, glass, and concrete. It is noted for the high quality of the results attainable, particularly for precise control of their metallurgy and crystal structure. Unlike most other casting techniques, centrifugal casting is chiefly used to manufacture
stock materials in standard sizes for further machining, rather than shaped parts tailored to a particular end-use.
