Reliability: measurements and simulations for the watchmaking industry
How do watchmakers manage to improve the quality and reliability of their timepieces?
Ensuring the stability of the time displayed on watch dials over many years is a daily challenge for watchmakers. Watch reliability involves rigorous numerical and physical testing of mechanical and electronic components against environmental factors such as temperature, humidity and shock.
While numerical simulation tools are used to predict and optimise the behaviour of components under the effect of stresses (thermal, vibration, electromagnetic fields, acoustic, wear, optical, etc), precision measurements certify that components comply with strict tolerances for precise operation in the real world.
At this event, organised at theEcole d'Horlogerie Genève, experts will share their experience of using simulation to effectively quantify the influence of environmental factors, reduce development times and make finished products more reliable.
