Jaap Scherphuis | The mechanism of the EOS mechanical calculator @jaapsch2 | Uploaded May 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
The EOS calculator is identical to the Hannovera CK calculator. It uses an oscillating segment system somewhat similar to the Demos, but whereas the Demos uses complementary digits for subtraction, the EOS allows you to simply turn the crank in the opposite direction like a pinwheel machine. About 1000 were produced, and sold in Switzerland.

I demonstrate the EOS in the following video: youtu.be/_bmuSqlPrL8
