Synchronized Excellence – Precision Tooling for “Haute Horlogerie"
The Micron Frontier of Watchmaking
In the world of high-quality horology, a "millimeter" is a vast distance. Modern Swiss watchmaking is a battle fought in microns. While 95% of the world’s high-value timepieces carry the "Swiss Made" seal, the true distinction lies in the invisible architecture of the movement.
At Mikron Tool, we translate Swiss heritage into the cutting-edge geometries required to machine the most intricate calibers.
Conquering the New Lead-Free Standard
The industry shift toward sustainability has introduced a significant hurdle: Lead-Free Brass. Unlike traditional alloys, Lead-free variants are notoriously difficult to machine, being highly abrasive and often producing long, "gummy" chips that can ruin a delicate watch bridge in seconds.
Our specialized CrazyDrill and CrazyMill lines are engineered specifically for these modern regulatory standards, offering:
- Advanced Chip Control: Geometries designed to break chips in Lead-free materials, preventing "bird-nesting" around the tool.
- Micro-Diameters: Tools starting well below 0.3 mm, perfect for the pivot holes of escape wheels and pallets.
- Surface Integrity: Achieving pristine finishes on precious metals (Gold, Platinum) and Stainless Steel, reducing the need for manual decoration.
- High degree of precision & quality: The tools are fabricated with the highest degree of precision (+/- 0.0005 mm - .00002") and repeat accuracy. This allows watchmakers to produce their watches reliably and with the desired precision
Crazy repeatability
Our "Crazy" performance isn't just a name, it’s a guarantee of repeatability for the most critical horological components:
- Main Plates & Bridges: Stable milling of complex, thin-walled structures with zero deformation.
- Balance Wheels & Oscillators: Achieving the perfect mass-symmetry required for chronometric precision.
- Crowns & Wristlet Elements: High-speed machining of tough Stainless Steels without sacrificing tool life.
