Losing count of CD/DVDs in production can cause major problems at the various processing stages (whether in-house or at the customer site) which ultimately are very costly to rectify.

Bronway Ltd. has designed the CD-300 Spindle Counter to automate and simplify the accurate count of CD/DVDs transported on spindles at the various stages in CD/DVD manufacturing plants and in software companies.

The CD-300 Spindle Counter offers significant advantages and cost savings over existing count/measurement methods. Gone are inaccurate manual weight and height measurement techniques.

By using the CD-300 Spindle Counter you can easily and accurately count production yields at each processing stage.The on-going issues generated between internal departments over CD/DVD counts can now be eliminated. Equally bulk shrink-wrapped CD/DVDs can now be confidently shipped to customers.

This stand-alone, ergonomic unit, with minimum footprint is designed to give maximum trouble-free operation on a continuous basis, thus freeing up valuable resources for more cost-effective tasks.The worry of in-process count problems is eliminated.
