Tightening indenting machine

for watchmaking

This equipment is used in watch industry to adjust cannon-pinion on center-arbor by deformation. This automatic or semi-automatic work station replaces former manual or semi-manual work techniques. The operation is made by two identical, perfectly aligned hard metal blades. A 500 N force sensor ensures the setting force and the penetration quality of the blades into cannon-pinion. This equipment offers quality and precision, but also repeatability of indenting. It stands out by its simplicity of use and its easy setting up of cannon-pinions. Software interface allows to efficiently and easily adjust indenting. Equipement • This equipment is used to adjust cannon-pinion on center-arbor by deformation. This automatic or semi-automatic work station replaces former manual or semi-manual work techniques. Interface software • Software interface developed for this equipment allows to efficiently and easily adjust height and depth of indenting. It also allows to analyse deformation of the material with a force/position curve. Height of indenting • Height of indenting is adjustable and motorised. Repeatability • This equipment offers quality and precision, and also repeatability of indenting. Simplicity of use • This machine stands out by its simplicity of use and ease of devices loading. Force sensor The operation is made by two perfectly aligned carbide blades. A 500 N force sensor ensures indenting force and penetration quality into cannon-pinion.
