a method for bonding two dvd halves which are so held at a distance as to form a gap therebetween , includes introducing into the gap an adhesive and spreading the adhesive across both disc halves . the invention is characterized by introducing the adhesive via a central opening of the dvd by means of e . g . l - shaped metering needles which are pivotally guided in a central pin that engages the central opening , or flexible plastic needles which are slidably guided in a guide tube . through introduction of the adhesive via the central opening enables a flow to the outside , without interference from the metering needles , when the dvd halves rotate . there is no buildup of adhesive in front of the metering needle . the bonding process can be carried out without interruption of the application of adhesive until the spin - off has concluded .
