Centrifugal Casting

Bronze castings, sliding bearings and other cylindrical components are manufactured using centrifugal casting. In centrifugal casting, a permanent mold is rotated about its axis as the molten metal is poured. The molten metal is centrifugally thrown towards the inside mold wall, where it solidifies after cooling. This method guarantees the high density and great strength properties of the semi-finished product.


Castings are delivered in the machined state in a component tolerance, which guarantees minimal allowance of shaping by the customer.
The alloys used in casting are made according to the material standards STN, EN or DIN. We are able to manufacture also specific type of alloy according to a customer requirement. Chemical composition is controlled by a spectrometer.
Finished castings are 100% controlled, especially the dimensions, the existence of any possible foundry defects and on demand also the tensile properties of castings.



Dimensions of semi-finished products:

Outer diameter: 50 – 410 mm (The larger dimensions after consultation)
Side thickness: 4 – 60 mm
Length: 60 – 365 mm
Max. weight of castings: 100 kg
