ABSTRACT:
A system and method for centrifugal casting of composites, especially metal-matrix composites. According to the system and method, a porous preform is infiltrated with matrix material using a centrifugal force to pressurize the matrix material against the preform. The pressure head of the matrix material is maintained at an approximately constant level throughout infiltration.
