That's pretty neat! It looks pretty clean. There is a nice explanation of
the coding used on this machine at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheatstone_system .

I have an Instructograph which has a single row of punched holes (dits) or
oblongs (dahs) and several tapes. But the Wheatstone system is pretty
neat!

It must be quite a mechanism to go from a QWERTY keyboard to Morse
punching. I'm impressed!
