With its combined knowledge of micro-manufacturing processes and accuracy processes, CSEM has been a pioneer in the design and production of centimeter-scale silicon parts with fine mechanical ...

The escapement mechanism has been widely used for centuries in mechanical clocks. It is the mechanism by which a clock controls the release of stored energy, allowing it to advance in small, precise ...

Projects can often spiral, not down or up, but out. For [Derek] he started playing around with a 3D printed escapement mechanism and thought it was a wonderful bit of engineering. But with a simple ...

But first, let’s get you up to speed on the background of this technology. Pruniaux likens the idea to running a marathon. The average person might start running quickly at the beginning and then get ...
