For sale is a rare, precision-engineered mechanical adjustment assembly from the renowned Swiss manufacturer Escher Wyss. This set features the hallmark “Three Interlocking Rings” and represents the pinnacle of mid-century industrial durability.
Originally part of a large-scale stroke or feed adjustment system (likely from a paper mill or industrial printing press), these components are ideal for a professional restoration or as the functional base for a high-end industrial “crank-adjust” table.
