Infodisc Technology GmbH Is First Independent Blu-ray Manufacturer in Western Europe with Oerlikon Equipment
German Optical Disc manufacturer Infodisc today received delivery of the first BD ROM manufacturing line Indigo in Western Europe. The Oerlikon (SWX:OERL) Blu-ray replication line will be installed in the coming days at the Renchen/Germany facility. Infodisc will offer its services as the first independent European Blu-ray manufacturer, which is not contractually tied to a particular Hollywood movie studio. As a pioneer in the Blu-ray production technology, Infodisc will share its experience with other replicators and serve as a showcase for the Oerlikon Blu-ray line Indigo.
Oerlikon is working with Sony DADC to develop a wet embossing process for production of the new 50GB dual layer Blu-ray format to be launched later this year.
