Expanding data bases, spreadsheets, documents, presentations, graphics, images, audio and video, make it essential to efficiently archive, manage and distribute increasing volumes of digital content in a variety of formats. With the explosion of digital information every organization and professional environment has accelerating requirements. The most reliable, and cost effective means to archive, manage, and distribute these valuable assets in on optical storage media, currently DVDs and CDs. Observing the needs and environments for processing large volumes of discs, Alera Technologies, the recognized leader in Award Winning tower and desktop DVD and CD Duplication solutions has introduced a totally automated disc duplication system which is the fastest in its class.
The 1:5 DVD/CD Auto Copy Tower is optimized for duplicating speed with a fast robotic loading mechanism and it has no built in printer to limit throughput. Printing is a slower process than duplicating and can be done in advance or after duplication if needed.
It is no surprise that our analysis confirms that the majority of users are in an office environment and have little experience with automated equipment other than possibly a copier. In this environment, equipment must be easy to understand and operate. Most automated disc duplication products available today are either very limited in capacity or are fairly complex and cumbersome and not really suited to the office environment. Alera Technologies has carefully considered these factors in the development of the Aleratec 1:5 DVD/CD Auto Copy Tower. The system has a 200 disc automatic loading capacity that can truly support unattended operation and operating controls that are very straight forward and intuitive to even the novice user.
The Aleratec 1:5 DVD/CD Auto Copy Tower is a new robotic duplication system incorporating the highest disc recording speeds and robotic disc handling in a package that facilitates higher productivity and hence is more cost effective than manual duplicating products. Business, government and education offices, audio and video professionals, software and game developers, graphic artists, churches, private organizations, and individual video enthusiasts are constantly looking for more effective methods of duplicating and handling DVDs and CDs for customers, clients, employees, students, organization members, etc. The need to duplicate and publish both DVDs and CDs in your office, where you have total control of the schedules, quantity and content has been growing since the first Optical Technology Recorders came on the scene. Until now, the necessary equipment has been hard to understand and operate, and very expensive.
