His discovery was at the same time the beginning of the history of the brand, which over the past 100 years has introduced successive innovations and consistently worked on its image as the undisputed expert in fasteners, fasteners and tools.

At designers' disposal are both flat technical drawings (2D), which can be directly used in design software, and spatial product views and models (3D) in a version that is convenient when a full visualization of the project needs to be presented or in materials of a marketing nature. Each product is available in 6 projections: isometric and front, rear, top, bottom and side views. They can also be viewed in magnification, and what's more - the products are also visible in 360 view, and the automatic rotation of the model can be stopped at any time, changed manually or scaled as desired.
