The basic difference is that rotation is a vital feature in centrifugal casting, if not emplyed, the casting won't be produced at all, whereas in SCC, we rotate the mould because -
1. Rotation of mould aids in the directional solidification of molten metal.
2. The centrifugal forces push the molten metal into complex parts of the cavity, and 3. The impurities easily get collected near the central core.
The mould would still be able to cast the molten metal, but rotating it only makes a better casting.
There are some other differences, like,
Core is used in SCC, it may/may not be used in CC.
SCC used for more complex shapes, while CC is used mostly used making hollow objects like pipes, tubes and bushes.
SCC uses a vertical axis, whereas tcc may use a horizontal or vertical or inclined axis.
Rotating speeds are lower in SCC compared to tcc.

Which industry uses centrifugal casting?
Centrifugal casting is used in Silversmithing industry. The molten metal is being poured or sprayed to the sides of the spinning mold which forms a centrifugal casted metal.
What is the difference between die casting and pressure die casting?
In sand mold casting the molten metal is poured in to the mold cavity , while in pressure die casting the molten metal is forced under high pressure in to the cavity. The sand casting process is used for small batch production where pressure die casting is used for mass production.
Difference between die casting and sand casting?
Sand Casting-is a cast part produced by forming a mold with the help of a model or pattern pressed into a sand mixture and then removed. Die Casting- is the process of forcing molten metal under high pressure into mold cavities (which are machined into dies).
What is the difference between Wrought and forged Fittings?
The main difference between wrought and forged fittings is strength. Forged fittings are tougher than wrought fittings as they begin as a casting which is then forged which adds to its durability.
What is the difference between earthing boss and earthing lug and where to use?
An earthing boss and earthing lug are parts of a grounding connection. An earthing boss is in a casting that allows for the drilling and tapping of hole. A earthing lug is used to bond a wire to the ground.
