The Duplicator:
This is of course the essential part for burning the CDR's. It is a robust case with one big arm in the middle. It doesn't look like anything special, but once it is fully assembled even the pope would stop if he just passed by and saw the robotics in action.
Most people thought that it was some kind of fancy juke-box, but instead of making music this baby burned like hell. A lot of people who passed by stopped and started dreaming...
"...What on earth were they doing by wasting precious time in backing up their cdr's, while this machine did the job unattended and gave them the opportunity of leaving the office early and spent some quality time with their children, and during this time even make money..."
You can already imagine that we were impressed with the final result. The naked version of the duplicator however didn't impress us that much.
But beware, there is a beast under this cloathing.
The Duplicator unit without the stack-hoppers and printer
Before we are going to highlight the writers in this case we are going to have a closer look at the picking mechanism of the duplicator.
I can tell you that this part is very significant and valuable in the duplicating process. An unattended copy-job is ruined if the picker fails. We have seen various sorts of pickers and I must say that a lot of them caused permanent troubles.
Why ? A picking device should pick each CDR seperately to bring it to its destination. Now one of the most common problems of CDR's is that they stick together. Since most CDR's (85% is manufactured outside Europe) travel many miles before they get in to our office, and thus are influenced by the weather-conditions which is causing difference in humidity, they are sticking together, making it impossible for some systems to pick up a cdr from a spindle.
The picker from Primera is one of the best around. Unlike other systems it has a very secure picking-device.
If the CDR-picker failed, the system would automatically try a few more times . Mind that the slightest declination of the system can have its influence in the picking of CDR. Once you have set up the duplicator and tests were successfull you can begin the duplication process without having to worry that the process failed due to incorrect picking.
It doesn't look like it, but this small part plays a master role in the duplication process...
The slightest failure can mean disaster in time-based duplications.
Conclusion:
The CDR-picker system is one of the best available in the market. Highly efficient and very important. This increases the reliability of the duplicator a lot.
