Irreproachable level of finishing quality
In the watch-making industry, each moving part has a function to fulfil and must have the least possible roughness in order to reduce the friction to a minimum.
MIMETAL™ technology enables us to attain these demanding finishing levels:
- Surface quality in functional areas:
Ra < 20nm - Visual aspect: “Poli-mirror”
- Friction coefficient drastically reduced
