Precision dimensional inspection for the micromechanics and watchmaking industry
In the watchmaking industry, every component must be manufactured to extremely tight tolerances to ensure the smooth operation, precision, and long-term reliability of the movement.
Similarly, in industrial micromechanics, many devices and assemblies rely on miniature components with highly precise machined surfaces. Accurate dimensional inspection is essential to verify every critical feature and ensure consistent product quality throughout the manufacturing process.
Among the main components measurable with VICIVISION and Metrios by VICIVISION measuring systems:
micro shafts
pins and micro pins
pinions and small gears
screws and micro screws
precision turned components
miniaturized components
components for watch movements

Precision requirements and quality standards
In this industry, components must meet extremely stringent dimensional requirements, often measured in microns, to ensure the proper operation of mechanical systems and the quality of the final product.
Many manufacturers operate under certified quality management systems, including:
ISO 9001 for quality management systems
statistical process control (SPC) procedures
measurement data traceability systems
