Differences in Piano's Action Mechanisms


Louis Renner GmbH is de toonaangevende fabrikant van pianomechanieken in de wereld. Alle Europese en de meeste Amerikaanse pianofabrikanten laten bij Renner de mechanieken voor hun duurdere en duurste instrumenten fabriceren.
 

Steingraeber-Ferro-Magnet-(SFM)-Mechaniek® werkte in samenwerking met Renner aan het benaderen van dezelfde aanslag voor de upright zoals bij grands, bij grands zijn de hamers langer en in het voordeel door de zwaartekracht bij het repeteren van de toets.

Steingraber Model 138 is the largest (upright piano) on the world market and sounds like a  6-foot salon grand.  With its latest refinements, this top-of-the-line model achieves an exclusivity that wants for nothing, and was named ‘world’s best’ in Paris.  In music conservatories, small halls, and even in churches this upright replaces grands, to which the motto, “Better a top-notch upright than a mediocre grand,” applies! 
Unique to the market, you have the choice of two touches by different actions:
- 138 K for classical touch
- 138 K SFM (Steingraeber-Ferro-Magnet-action) with a repetition point at 1-2 mm (=8-9 mm key depth like grand pianos)
Optional extra: chamber music dampers in the upper bass register for the bi-chords (+30% efficiency). In the lower section, the large dampers are our standard.

Mason & Hamlin is proud to use Wessell, Nickel and Gross actions in its pianos.


 KAWAI has it's own mechanisms
