The Enigma was the Germans' and the Ultra was the British machine.
Then the British from HMS Bulldog were the first to capture the Enigma Machine from the U-110 in the North Atlantic on May 9th 1941.
Then Poland helped the British to decipher the code.
Perhaps you're thinking of the Bombe.
I believe crew members off a British destroyer that had disabled a German submarine during WW2. The German crew was kept in isolation to insure the Germans did not learn that an enigma code machine had been captured by the British..........
The British at Bletchley Park broke the codes used by the German encryption machine known as "Enigma".
It was called The Enigma Machine for German encoding.
The Enigma was used to decode the Enigma. The British decoders at Bletchley Park during the Second World War used brain-power to try to crack the German codes. That is, until they got their hands on an Enigma machine which the Polish had captured.
Turing did not work on the Enigma, it was a German machine. However he did do some work on the British Bombe machines that were used to crack the Enigma machine cipher. Later he saw Tommy Flowers' Colossus electronic computer, designed to crack the German Lorenz SZ40/42 machine cipher. This inspired him after the end of the war to begin work on programmable electronic computers.

I don't know what the Germans called it, but when the British got ahold of it and began trying to decrypt it, they called it the "Enigma machine".
enigma was the German code making machine not code breaking ultra was the code breaking machine
It was called the Enigma.
it is a brown wooden box with a typing machine inside, this would break the enigma code, the Germans used this machine in WW2
