Abstract

A method of continuous centrifugal casting of metal products in which molten metal is rotated during the passage through an elongated cooled ingot mold about the axis of the latter and in which the still liquid core of the partly solidified casting as it leaves the ingot mold is subjected to forces counteracting the rotation of the still liquid core of the casting.
