  1. Guitar Neck Duplicator By Eric Hall

  2. Background • Difficult to Replicate • Time Consuming • Generally done by hand

  3. What’s Available • Expensive ($2,000 – $4,000) • Manually Operated

  4. Problem The customer wants a more time efficient way to duplicate guitar necks.

  5. Requirements • The process must perform high enough quality work so that only sanding is required to finish the product. • It must be able to duplicate a variety of different length necks (about 10"- 18" long). • Wear items must be easy to replace. • It must be autonomous.

  6. Solution The device is based on the key maker concept. (The cutting tool follows a path that is dictated by a previously fabricated pattern part.) The key maker is explicitly two dimensional, while the Guitar Neck Duplicator will be three axis (The third being rotational).

  7. System Overview PLC
