CD Replication Service
Precision CD Replication
When you need more than 500 CDs produced, you can count on S&J CD Duplication to handle your order with precision, expediency and a topnotch level of service. Larger orders call for a different process than smaller ones to ensure quality throughout the run. To get the job done right, we use the CD replication process that enables us to have a great deal of control over the final product.
CD replication involves the physical manufacturing of your compact discs from small polycarbonate beads. Unlike other processes for copying data, CD replication begins when your original master is used to make a super smooth glass master, called single speed glass mastering. A laser etches an exact duplicate of your CDR master, cloning the pits and grooves. This, in turn, allows a set of metal stampers to be made. The pits and grooves from the glass master are turned into microscopic spikes on the metal stamper.

During the stamping process, the polycarbonate beads are melted and forced into high-tech injection molding equipment. The process results in the exact cloning of the master by pressing your specially made stamper into the semi-molten polycarbonate formed ring. Once this step is completed, a coat of reflective aluminum follows, which is sealed with a protective coat of lacquer hardened by ultraviolet light to protect the data on your CDs.
After your CDs are made, they are silk screen or offset printed. To complete the process, we either spindle or package your order into casing along with inserts for delivery. The final result is a product that looks and sounds exactly like you would purchase in a retail store.
