Perhaps not a pantograph in the strict interpretation of this term but rather better described as a lathe profile copying device. The addition of an illuminated touch point sensor is a very good idea.

Un pantografo è un altro dispositivo.È un sistema di leve che ripete il movimento.A pantograph is a different device.This is a system of levers that repeats the movement.
