€ 16 000
Das Konstruktionsprinzip der SG41 basiert auf dem der Hagelin-Maschinen, enthält aber eine Reihe wesentlicher Verbesserungen. Mit den damaligen Mitteln der Entschlüsselungstechnik war diese Maschine unknackbar. Aufgrund von Kompetenzstreitigkeiten und Fertigungsproblemen kamen aber nur sehr wenige Geräte ab 1944 zum Einsatz.
Die Restaurierung des sehr seltenen und mechanisch äußerst komplizierten SG41 wurde von einem Experten mit hohem Aufwand im Verlaufe eines Jahres umgesetzt. Dabei wurde die Maschine komplett zerlegt, gereinigt, entrostet, brüniert und konserviert. Nicht mehr brauchbare Originalteile (Codierscheiben/Schlüsselräder) wurden nach Originalvorlagen 1:1 nachgefertigt. Nach Einliefererangaben lässt sich die Maschine mechanisch bedienen, Rotoren und Codierscheiben werden angetrieben. Vollständigkeit und Funktion der Chiffrierung konnten von uns nicht überprüft werden. Abmessungen 27 x 31 x 17 cm, Gewicht ca. 10 kg.
