    The document describes the design and development of a true centrifugal casting machine. The machine uses centrifugal force to produce hollow cylindrical cast parts. It was designed and built by a student team to cast small engineering components. Key aspects of the design include the mold, shaft, belt and pulley system, bearings, and motor. The machine operates by rotating the mold at moderate speeds to force molten metal against the inner walls using centrifugal force. This reduces porosity and produces sound castings. The design calculations, setup, fabrication, and conclusions are presented.

    ABSTRACT:-
    • The aim of the project is design and development of centrifugal casting
    machine. This machine produce hollow cylindrical parts. The casting part
    reduce porosity and make a sound casting part.
    • The operation of the machine is based on the principle of centrifugal force.
    Suitable design theory and calculation were adopted carried out in the
    course of the work. The mold is bolted to the base plate which can rotate at
    moderate speeds thereby forcing the molten metal against the inner walls
    of the mold. This machine could be used to cast small engineering
    components in small industries and for practical purpose in workshop.
    INTRODUCTION
    CASTING : It is the manufacturing process in which molten metal
    is pored into mould cavity, after solidification of metal desired shape
    of part achieved.

    CENTRIFUGAL CASTING : This is a process where the mould is rotated


    with predetermined speed about its central axis as the molten metal is
    pored into it. A molten metal is centrifugally thrown towards the
    inside metal wall, where it solidifies after cooling.
    Centrifugal force is acted for making a sound casting in two way :
    (1) Centrifugal force is utilised to distribute liquid metal over the
    outer surface of cast part, so hollow cylinder and other
    annular shape are formed.
    (2) Centrifugal force tends to pored metal and freezing metal to
    fly outward to centre and this tendency creates high
    pressure on the metal which minimise porosity and holes in
    cast part.
    There are three main types of centrifugal casting process :
    (1) True centrifugal casting
    (2) Semi centrifugal casting
    (3) Centrifuge casting
    There are basic two types of centrifugal casting
    machine
    (1) Horizontal centrifugal casting
    The method casting involves rotating the
    mould in a horizontal axis. A typical
    horizontal centrifugal casting machine is
    shown in Fig. Horizontal centrifugal casting
    preferred for the tube geometry. fig : Horizontal centrifugal
    casting machine[11]

    (2) Vertical centrifugal casting


    This type of casting is followed for cylinder
    type bodies having ring geometry. In this
    method the mould is rotated in a vertically
    axis. A typical vertical centrifugal casting
    machine is shown in Fig.
    fig : Vertical centrifugal
    casting machine[11]

    1 Properties of Madhusudhan, •Study of rate of
    Centrifugal Casting Narendranath S, solidification of centrifugal
    casting is highly impossible
    at Different G C Mohan by direct measurement,
    Rotational Speeds of Kumar based on grain size the
    the Die (January solidification rate can be
    2013) easily determined.
    •. The slow rate of
    solidification gives coarse
    grains and faster rate of
    solidification gives fine
    equi-axed grains.

    2 Cilinder liners in F. Bonollo, A. The aim of this work is to
    aluminium matrix Moret, S. Gallo, analyze centrifugal casting
    composite by C. Mus process parameters in
    order to optimize the
    centrifugal casting reinforcement distribution
    (June 2004) at the inner surface of the
    liner.
    Sr. Title Investigator Remarks
    3 Process Capability S C Mondal • The quality of the cast
    Analysis of a product depends on the
    rate of solidification,
    Centrifugal Casting pouring time, pouring
    Process (2010) temperature, ladle preheat
    temperature and rpm of
    the mould. In centrifugal
    casting, the mechanical
    properties of material are
    considered as more critical
    than the dimensional
    characteristics (having a
    wide range of
    specification).
    Sr. Title Investigator Remarks
    4 Experimental P. Shailesh, B. • Decrease in pouring
    investigation on Praveen Kumar, temperature leads to
    increases in all the
    centrifugal casting S. Sundarrajan mechanical properties due
    of 5500 alloy: A and M. to fine grains in matrix
    Taguchi approach Komariahia formed during the process.
    (November 2012 ) • Increase in Die-speed
    increases ultimate tensile
    strength due to the effect
    of centrifugal force acting
    on the metal.

    5 Determination of P.Shaliesh, B. • Freezing time of molten
    the Solidification Praveen Kumar, K metal in centrifugal casting

    mould temperature as well
    Alloy during A Nagendra as the pouring

    (February 2014) • The freezing time is
    completely independent of
    the rotational speed of the
    mould in the range
    considered in the present
    investigation.
