Abstract

A device (10) for manufacturing a metal alloy blank by centrifugal casting of a molten metal alloy, comprising a centrifugal casting wheel (20), the centrifugal casting wheel (20) being rotary about an axis of rotation (A) and comprising a mold (22) for receiving the molten metal alloy, the mold extending in a radial direction (R1) with respect to the axis of rotation (A). The device (10) comprises at least one magnet arranged in such a way as to induce an electric current in the mold (22) during the rotation of the centrifugal casting wheel (20) about the axis of rotation (A).
