METAZA Mechanical Operation
How METAZA marks dots on metal
METAZA impacts a conical diamond-tipped stylus onto a metallic surface to make a depression.  
The areas with depressions look lighter than where there are none.  These differences form an 
image.  (A depression = a dot.)
How METAZA creates tone
METAZA changes the size of a dot to create the tone of an image.  (The stronger the impact, the 
larger and deeper the depression will be.)  METAZA varies the impact with a diamond tip so that 
the image consists of smaller dots for darker areas and larger dots for brighter areas.  METAZA 
driver automatically controls the size of the impact.  You can also change the size by adjusting the 
settings as you wish.

Magnification
Each dot in the image below was impacted with the  
diamond-tipped stylus.  You can see larger dots in 
brighter areas and smaller dots in the darker area.
(The black area with no dot is the surface color of 
the metal reflecting darker.
