In 1890, the only ways of manufacturing copies of a master cylinder were to mold the cylinders (which was slow and, early on, produced very poor copies), or to acoustically copy the sound by placing the horns of two phonographs together or to hook the two together with a rubber tube (one phonograph recording and the other playing the cylinder back). Instead of copying a master cylinder, the other alternative was to record a performance to multiple gramophones simultaneously, over and over again, making each cylinder a master copy. <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Edison" title="Thomas Edison">Edison</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gianni_Bettini" title="Gianni Bettini">Bettini</a>, <a href="/wiki/Leon_Douglass" title="Leon Douglass">Leon Douglass</a> and others solved this problem (partly) by mechanically linking a cutting stylus and a playback stylus together and copying the "hill-and-dale" grooves of the cylinder mechanically. When molding improved somewhat, molded cylinders were used as pantograph masters. This was employed by Edison and <a href="/wiki/Columbia_Records" title="Columbia Records">Columbia</a> in 1898, and was used until about January 1902 (Columbia brown waxes after this were molded). Some companies like the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Phonograph_Company" title="United States Phonograph Company">United States Phonograph Company</a> of <a href="/wiki/Newark,_New_Jersey" title="Newark, New Jersey">Newark, New Jersey</a>, supplied cylinder masters for smaller companies so that they could duplicate them, sometimes pantographically. Pantographs could turn out about 30 records per day and produce up to about 150 records per master. In theory, pantograph masters could be used for 200 or 300 duplicates if the master and the duplicate were running in reverse and the record would be duplicated in reverse. This, in theory, could extend the usability of a pantograph master by using the unworn/lesser worn part of the recording for duplication. <a href="/wiki/Path%C3%A9" title="Pathé">Pathé</a> employed this system with mastering their vertically-cut records until 1923; a 5-inch-diameter (130 mm), 4-or-6-inch-long (100 or 150 mm) master cylinder, rotating at a high speed, would be recorded on. This was done as the resulting cylinder was considerably loud and of very high fidelity. Then, the cylinder would be placed on the mandrel of a duplicating pantograph that would be played with a stylus on the end of a lever, which would transfer the sound to a wax disc master, which would be electroplated and be used to stamp copies out. This system resulted in some fidelity reduction and rumble, but relatively high quality sound. <a href="/wiki/Edison_Disc_Record" title="Edison Disc Record">Edison Diamond Disc Records</a> were made by recording <i>directly</i> onto the wax master disc. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Milling_machines">Milling machines</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pantograph&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Milling machines"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1251242444"><table class="box-Unreferenced_section plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-content ambox-Unreferenced" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Question_book-new.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/50px-Question_book-new.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="39" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/75px-Question_book-new.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/100px-Question_book-new.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="399" /></a></span></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">This section <b>does not <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources">cite</a> any <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability">sources</a></b>.<span class="hide-when-compact"> Please help <a href="/wiki/Special:EditPage/Pantograph" title="Special:EditPage/Pantograph">improve this section</a> by <a href="/wiki/Help:Referencing_for_beginners" title="Help:Referencing for beginners">adding citations to reliable sources</a>.

The only ways to control the movement of the cutting tool were to dial the positions by hand using dexterous skill (with natural limits on a human's <a href="/wiki/Accuracy_and_precision" title="Accuracy and precision">accuracy and precision</a>) or to trace a cam, template, or model in some way, and have the cutter mimic the movement of the tracing stylus. If the milling head was mounted on a pantograph, a duplicate part could be cut (and at various scales of magnification besides 1:1) simply by tracing a template. (The template itself was usually made by a <a href="/wiki/Tool_and_die_maker" title="Tool and die maker">tool and die maker</a> using <a href="/wiki/Toolroom" class="mw-redirect" title="Toolroom">toolroom</a> methods, including milling via dialing followed by hand sculpting with <a href="/wiki/File_(tool)" title="File (tool)">files</a> and/or <a href="/wiki/Die_grinder" class="mw-redirect" title="Die grinder">die grinder</a> points.) This was essentially the same concept as reproducing documents with a pen-equipped pantograph, but applied to the <a href="/wiki/Machining" title="Machining">machining</a> of hard materials such as metal, wood, or plastic. Pantograph <a href="/wiki/Router_(woodworking)" title="Router (woodworking)">routing</a>, which is conceptually identical to pantograph milling, also exists (as does CNC routing). The Blanchard lathe, a <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Blanchard_(inventor)#Machine_tools_for_gun_making_and_pattern_copying_lathe" title="Thomas Blanchard (inventor)">copying lathe developed by Thomas Blanchard</a>, used the same essential concept. </p><p>The development and dissemination throughout industry of NC, CNC, PLC, and other control technologies provided a new way to control the movement of the milling cutter: via feeding information from a program to actuators (<a href="/wiki/Servomotor" title="Servomotor">servos</a>, <a href="/wiki/Selsyn" class="mw-redirect" title="Selsyn">selsyns</a>, <a href="/wiki/Leadscrew" title="Leadscrew">leadscrews</a>, machine slides, <a href="/wiki/Spindle_(tool)" title="Spindle (tool)">spindles</a>, and so on) that would move the cutter as the information directed. Today most commercial machining is done via such programmable, computerized methods. Home machinists are likely to work via manual control, but computerized control has reached the home-shop level as well (it is just not yet as pervasive as its commercial counterparts). Thus pantograph milling machines are largely a thing of the past. They are still in commercial use, but at a greatly reduced and ever-dwindling level. They are no longer built new by machine tool builders, but a small market for used machines still exists. As for the magnification-and-reduction feature of a pantograph (with the scale determined by the adjustable arm lengths), it is achieved in CNC via mathematic calculations that the computer applies to the program information practically instantaneously. Scaling functions (as well as mirroring functions) are built into languages such as <a href="/wiki/G-code" title="G-code">G-code</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Other_uses">Other uses</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pantograph&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Other uses"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In another application similar to drafting, the pantograph is incorporated into a pantograph engraving machine with a revolving cutter instead of a pen, and a tray at the pointer end to fix precut lettered plates (referred to as 'copy'), which the pointer follows and thus the cutter, via the pantograph, reproduces the 'copy' at a ratio to which the pantograph arms have been set. The typical range of ratio is Maximum 1:1 Minimum 50:1 (reduction) In this way machinists can neatly and accurately <a href="/wiki/Engraving" title="Engraving">engrave</a> numbers and letters onto a part.
