Netstal POA 110.240.5437 Board Diskjet 600 Steag Firstlight Unijet 60144 CD Rep

This is a Netstal POA 110.240.5437 PCB control board removed from a Steag Firstlight Unijet 60144 CD replication system that was paired with a Netstal Diskjet 600 injection molder. The board is also labeled with the alternate part number 110.240.5438a on its edge-mounted retainer handle, which is visible in the photos.

Applications

The Netstal Diskjet 600 is an injection molding machine purpose-built for optical disc manufacturing — specifically for molding polycarbonate substrates used in CD and DVD production. It was designed to integrate directly with Steag Firstlight's Unijet CD replication line, a turnkey system that handled substrate molding, metallization, lacquering, and printing in a linked production cell. Control and interface boards like this POA module handle the communication and logic functions between the injection molder's controller and the broader replication line. This type of equipment was at the center of high-volume CD replication in the 1990s and early 2000s, when CD production capacity was rapidly expanding. Replacement PCB boards for these systems are increasingly difficult to source as the machines age, making individual boards like this valuable spare or repair parts for facilities still running Diskjet or Unijet-based replication lines.
