The moveable mold system has fewer molds than the rotary system and therefore less investment. The moveable mold system is less complicated mechanically and is therefore less costly to buy and to maintain. The moveable system need not be synchronized as precisely as the rotary system.
Answer to Question 2
Aluminum advantages:
Lower initial cost due to lower machining time Shorter delivery time
More even heat distribution
Shorter cycle from higher thermal conductivity Lighter weight
Easier to cast should that be the preferred fabrication method
Aluminum disadvantages:
Must be anodized to get hardness and anodizing may wear off
Long-term wear us high
