| Περίληψη: | This project studies the manufacturing of a 3D printed alto saxophone mouthpiece and examines its success, and the possibility of replacing the factory made pieces. Fields that are inherently related to this project are, Design For Manufacturing (DFM), Sound Acoustics, Psychoacoustics, and Sustainability of 3D printing as a production method. Customisation of a mouthpiece is possible when altering some shape parameters and dimensions. Combining these subjects along with the process of Reverse Engineering (RE) for a Selmer S80 C* mouthpiece will lead to 3D printing trials. Sound quality cannot be measured, and relevant research is few. Evaluation and feedback given by professional musicians on these trials will determine the quality and benefits of such a mouthpiece to beginner students. In addition, this study will aim to seek other applications emerging from current progress in the field, as well as assess the performance of such a manufacturing process. |
