Method of manufacturing double reeds

摘要

A computerized reed fabrication system having an X-Y-Z axes computer numerical controlled (CNC) machine capable of holding a tool bit. The CNC machine operates under the control of CNC software commands. The reed fabrication system further includes a tool bit held by the CNC machine and a reed holder located adjacent that tool bit. Non-transitory computer readable media stores CNC software commands. A computer reads those stored CNC software commands and sends them to the CNC machine. The CNC software commands cause the CNC machine to move the tool bit relative to the reed holder as required to fabricate a double reed from a cut piece of reed cane.

主权项

1. A computerized double reed fabrication system, comprising:
an X-Y-Z axes computer numerical controlled (CNC) machine capable of holding a tool bit, said CNC machine for controlling said tool bit as directed by CNC software commands; a tool bit held by said CNC machine; a holder for prefabricating canes for a double-reed adjacent to said tool bit for holding a partially fabricated double reed; non-transitory computer readable media storing CNC software commands for fabricating a finished double reed from a partially fabricated double reed held in said holder; and a computer for reading said stored CNC software commands, said computer further for sending said read CNC software commands to said CNC machine; wherein said CNC software commands cause said CNC machine to move said tool bit relative to said holder so as to finish fabricating a double reed.
