Column wheel and vertical clutch

Systems with column wheel and vertical coupling are the most precise, but also solve the annoying phenomenon of the so-called "jumping hand" that occurs in systems that do not use them. The column wheel has a shape that is reminiscent of the top of a medieval crenellated wreath. To ensure smoother engagement and therefore a more pleasant user experience, each crank (i.e. each "column") must be reworked by hand to remove even the smallest machining residue.
