The presentation and paper discusses the design and evaluation of the principal mechatronics of the SINGULUS 3rd generation LBR and the lay-out of the new in line Mastering system.

To provide customers with a reliable, robust, Mastering solution capable to deliver economically both HD-DVD and Blu-ray stampers, SINGULUS MASTERING is developing a new inline-mastering system.
