Watch Industry Applications

In the watch industry, the use of assembly presses plays a central role in assembling the precise and delicate components of a watch accurately and reliably. The particular challenge in the assembly of watches lies in the combination of delicate components and the need for maximum precision.

One of the most important applications is the embossing of watch hands and fitting them onto axles. Not only do the hands have to be accurately stamped, they also have to be precisely mounted on the axles of the watch to ensure smooth movement and accurate timekeeping. Assembly presses make it possible to place the hands on the axles with even force without damaging them or impairing their functionality.

Another example is the assembly of pins in watch straps, which connect the individual links of the straps together. Here, a stable yet flexible connection is essential to ensure the comfort and durability of the watch strap. Assembly presses ensure that the pins are precisely positioned and assembled with the right force to create a durable and secure connection.

Overall, assembly presses in the watch industry help to fulfil the extremely high requirements for precision and reliability in the manufacture of watch movements and their components. They enable a uniform, controlled application of force, which is necessary to correctly join the delicate components without damaging them.
