Abstract: During centrifugal casting when a mould is rotated at low and very high speeds, defects are found in the final castings. Obtaining the critical speed for sound castings should not be a matter of guessing but based on experience. The defects in the casting are mainly due to the behaviour of the molten metal during the teeming and solidification process. The motion of molten metal at various speeds and its effect during casting are addressed in this paper. Tin is taken as an experiment fluid and its performance during various rotational speeds is discussed. The microstructures and hardness of all the castings are also investigated.
