Mechanical
Braille typewriters

For decades, mechanical Braille typewriters have been indispensable aids for blind and visually impaired people who want to write reliably and directly in Braille. Depending on your needs, compact, robust, quiet or ergonomically designed models are available for different scenarios.

In school, training, work and everyday life, these devices impress with their ease of use, precise embossing quality and high durability.

Eurotype

The Eurotype is currently the most reliable and modern mechanical 6-point Braille typewriter. It is particularly characterised by its high typing comfort and excellent print quality, and is also very easy to use. It has adjustable margins, a backspace key, line feed, margin release key, key lock at the end of the line and a bell (which can be switched off) for acoustic signals. The Eurotype is fed with paper via a paper channel (no paper roll) like a conventional typewriter.

It is suitable for labelling individual sheets as well as continuous paper. Foils and embossing tapes can also be labelled. The carrying handle integrated into the housing makes it easy to transport.
