A method for producing a rotationally symmetrical body from a molding material, such as a molten metal, which comprises atomizing the molding material in liquid form through a spraying nozzle that is disposed relative to a spray receiving the sprayed molding material on an initial position of said surface, forming a level of liquid molding material on said spray receiving surface and molding material, forming a controllably rotating body of said liquid molding material while it is solidifying, said solidifying rotating body having a diameter, drawing the so-formed body downwardly from said initial position while continuing its rotation, continuously forming said body at said initial position, monitoring the diameter values of the rotating body at a plane adjacent to said initial position, and controlling said rotation by said diameter values.
