- In computing, sound
reproduction and video, an optical disc is flat, circular,
usually polycarbonate disc whereon data is stored in the form of pits
(or bumps) within a flat surface.
- An audio compact disc
consists of one or more stereo tracks stored using 16-bit PCM coding at
a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz.
- Compact disc technology
was later adapted for use as a data storage device, known as a CD-ROM,
and to include record-once and re-writable media (CD-R and CD-RW).
- Replicated CDs are
mass-produced using a hydraulic injection mold, where a glass master
disc is created and used to make "stampers."
- CDs and DVDs can be
machine packed in a number of different packages together with booklets
and other printed parts.
- Quality Assurance is an
essential part of manufacturing CDs to ensure that they meet
specifications and to monitor the processes involved.
- Copy protection is
carried out using a combination of premastering, glass mastering
and QA, all of which need new or modified equipment and
processes.
- The advantages of CD
pressing are cheapness, reliability and volume. For large
volumes,
CDs with two colour labels and standard jewel cases can cost
less than 50 pence each. The
better plants have equipment that checks
every disc optically, and you can be sure of a
failure rate of less
than 0.1%.
- Polycarbonate of high
purity is the needed raw material, which will be imported from
Europe
- With a population of 1.2
billion people, China is potentially the largest single market for
optical disc media in the world
- India could easily be the next big market for
these products
-
Going forward as
the market develops sufficiently to sustain the local CD production most
of the countries then will have their own replication facility.
Countries like Iran, Syria, Libya, Algeria, Tunisia and Jordan come into
this category.
