1. Mounting Action and Keyboard
The keyboard and action are directly incorporated into the body of the piano itself. The Action of a piano requires more than 80 assembly pieces for each keyboard. SAMICK's jack and damper lever, which are key parts in a piano's action, are made from natural wood so the sense of touch on the keyboard is delivered in whole. Thermal resistance is excellent, and the sound is precise.
   
2. First Regulation
Through this regulation, the keyboard height and the hammer's travel distance are adjusted with precision.
   
3. Action Test via Key Tap Robot
A key tap robot hits each key of the keyboard several hundred times to test action movement.
   
4. First Tuning
After having performed the first regulation and the action test, the pitch of each note is accurately tuned by ear.
   
5. First Machine Assisted Automatic String-Strike
After having performed the action test, each key string is struck hundreds of times using the help of a robot once again to test harmony between sound and action.
   
6. Second Tuning
The second tuning is performed to test the keyboard, action, and the hammer to stabilize sound precision.
   
7. First Voicing
Shape and the density of the hammer pelt made from compressed wool are adjusted to create the best possible sound.
   
8. Second Machine Assisted Automatic String-Strike
After the first machine assisted automatic string-strike is performed, each key string is struck hundreds of times more to ensure precise action and sound stability.
   
9. Second Regulation
Through this second regulation, precise adjustments in travel time, condition, travel distance and other factors involved in action are made.
   
10. Second Voicing
In second voicing, hammer shape and density are further sharpened to create rich volume and even tone.
   
11. Joining Exterior Components
The piano's upper lid, its legs, pedals, and other exterior pieces are joined together.
