Hello ,
I am an luthier , archaeologist and inventor from Istanbul - Republic of Turkey who is interested in solving slow production times of musical instruments especially lutes and increase the quality of composite instruments to a level impossible without new technologies. I gave my 25 years to the composites and engineering of the dynamics of instruments. Here I want to introduce you to the new technics , softwares and production machines. When you work with me , I will request only the engineered three dimensional computer file license fee and send your file to rapid production company. You will pay to them not me. Its not expensive. You will receive your instrument in one week . Please read below written details and technologies and prepare your mind to the 21th century. I am starting this new kind of business which is invented at Massachusetts Institute of Technology , NASA and some Australian software manufacturers. MIT students opened a new way to manufacture the instruments with high precision , fastest manufacturing time . And Australian Bell Company introduced the software simulation of composite instrument sound , adjusting the partials with automatically changing , optimising the shape and knowing all fatigue life of high stress loaded parts. Let me tell the story. Few years ago Australian government ordered to the Australian Bell Company a new series of bells.These bells were harmonic. History tells us bell makers are working to create a harmonic bell more than 2000 years without success. This company used first finite element analysis software developed by NASA at sixties , NASTRAN. You can find Nastran as used at Mercedes to calibrate the vibration characteristics of the automobiles , trucks and even crash simulations. This program analysis and simulates the final vibration of the automobile and than optimise it. It can even decrease the final weight of the piece by redesign it automatically. You can find this software at 100 000 dollars worth turntables design. Other software is ADVEA Shape Change. This software is another intelligent technology and you can order to change the harmony of partials as you need them and it changes the shape. And they succeeded to manufacture first harmonic bell in 2000 years of history. How will be your lute manufactured in one week. This is called rapid production or rapid prototyping. There are many new companies which can produce thousand products in few days This technology uses printer technology. Printer jet hot ABS to the surface and instrument come to life layers by layers. MIT students were one of the first manufacturers of this idea , production of acoustic guitars from ABS. ABS is acoustically good , light and strong and eye appealing cream colored plastic like wood. Rapid prototyping machines are so fast and precise , they create scale aircrafts to propellers to test for. I have these softwares and I know how to use them . If you have a plan drawing which you want to own , please send me a private mail [1][email protected] Best , Mustafa Umut Sarac Buyuksehir Camlik Caddesi B 17 A Blok Daire 21 Beylikduzu 34520 Istanbul Republic of Turkey 90-212-8721893 I prefer e mails and return at the same date. -- References 1. mailto:[email protected] To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
