Abstract
The present invention relates to a centrifugal casting unit, in which a casting mold has a central distributing pan into which melts, produced inductively, are introduced. The casting unit includes workpiece-molds for precision castings, arranged on the periphery of the distributing pan. The casting unit rotates on a rotating plate in a vessel which can be evacuated. The operations which are required for a working cycle, i.e., the opening and closing of the evacuable vessel, the control of the melting and casting operations etc., are accomplished mechanically, hydraulically, and under electrical control in a fully automatic manner.
