Abstract
Liquid metal undergoes rapid rotational motion in an induction field and utilizes the resultant centrifugal forces to extend the metal in the form of a rotating film, the film becoming progressively thinner, along a baffle surface located in the induction field. The liquid metal can then emerge through the baffle surface in the form of wires or can be reduced in size on a cylindrical impact wall and then cooled.
