An apparatus for bonding an upper half-disc and a lower half-disc to form an optical disc, the apparatus has an upper housing, operable to hold the upper half-disc and a lower housing, operable to support the lower half-disc and operable to contact with the upper housing to form an air-tight chamber between the upper housing and the lower housing. A actuator operates to pair the upper half-disc and the lower half disc by bringing the upper half-disc and the lower half disc into close proximity within the air-tight chamber while pressure in the air-tight chamber is held below ambient air pressure, where bringing the upper half-disc and the lower half disc into close proximity distributes a bonding material between the upper half-disc and the lower half-disc to fill the space between the upper half-disc and the lower half-disc. This abstract is not to be considered limiting, since other embodiments may deviate from the features described in this abstract. |
