The Swiss NEMA Cipher Machine
During the W.W.II Switzerland, which had been using a version of the Enigma for its own communications, suspecting, that both the Allies and the Germans were able to read their Enigma-enciphered traffic decided to design a significantly improved cipher machine based on the Enigma. Design of NEMA or the (NEue MAschine) begun in 1942, first examples were released in 1945. The Swiss Army and Air Force began to use NEMA in 1947 when over 640 were introduced.

The machine consists of a keyboard with the standard German QWERTZU layout, a wheel -based 'scrambling' device, a lamp-board, a character counter. Scrambler component of NEMA contains ten wheels - marked A-Z, these are actually five pairs of wheels, each pair consisting of a wired component and a control component. These rotors can be moved by hand to set the cipher key. It has a period of 17,576 letters, each ring-rotor pair having a period of 676. Lamps are used to indicate letters it produces.

The NEMA weighs 10.7 Kg and is 332x384x148 mm in size. It has a locking cabinet with 2 metal clasps and a leather handle. Accessories stored in the lid of the cabinet included 4 spare rotors, 16 spare display bulbs, a little steel brush, the external lamp panel & cable, the power cable, and an adapter for an AC light socket. It can be connected to a printing device or a Tele-printer via a 34-pin cable. Power options are, internal or external 4-volt batteries or 110-250 VAC mains supply.
