Doesn't Fazoli purposely over-strike their hammers?

If the hammer goes past vertical the return is slowed by gravity pulling straight down and you loose repetition. Sorry I forgot that part in my earlier post. I have not had a lot of experience with Bechseins (eight or ten) but I have noticed that they are inconsistent in respect to hammer boring distances, angles, rakes and string heights. Often what I see makes not mechanical sense at all and flies in the face of my current low level of knowledge. Perhaps there is someone out there who can explain the logic. _I_ would love to know.
