Flexure-based Escapements for Mechanical Watches

Abstract

Combining its expertise in the domains of micro-manufacturing techniques and precision mechanisms, CSEM has been a pioneer in the design and production of centimeter scale silicon parts featuring fine mechanical functions, opening up new opportunities for the design and production of novel and innovative watch mechanisms. In the frame of the SILOSCAPE MIP, CSEM is focusing on the design and production of novel high-performance watch oscillators and escapements.
