Originally, typewriter manufacturers attempted to achieve the much-desired "noiseless" state by using various methods of muffling the sound -- with covers over the mechanism or with weighted plates to reduce vibration. Eventually it was in modifying the action of the type bars to stop precisely at the platen, which accomplished the best sound reduction. This innovation by C.C.
