GEARS
Micron units are
routine for MIYOTA
The energy generated by the mainspring or
power cell is transmitted through the gears
that make up the gear train to move the hands
of the watch.
Watches contain gears of different sizes, with
wheels being the bigger ones and pinions the
smaller ones. Some of our smallest pinions are
made by grinding a thread-like piece of metal
wire with a diameter of just 1mm on a lathe.
At MIYOTA, we manufacture all our
gears in-house, deploying a range of
machinery, including latest NC lathes,
CAM auto lathes and machine presses,
to do so.
Gears must be micron-level precise. At
MIYOTA, we use cutting tools we developed
in-house because no commercially available
products are able to deliver the high level of
precision we insist on. After all, to make
high-precision parts, you need
high-precision tools.
