Thanks to him, the person who played an important role in the activities of the German section of the Cipher Bureau was Antoni Palluth, who purchased a civilian copy of the Enigma, allowing research on the device.

After Rejewski had worked out the military Enigma's logical structure, the Polish Cipher Bureau commissioned the AVA Radio Company, co-owned by Antoni Palluth, to build replicas ("doubles") of the Enigma to Rejewski's specifications.
