Surface expertise for the watch industry
The FILAB laboratory carries out surface expertise for the watchmaking industry
What is surface surveying?
Surface analysis is a method of analysing the composition and structure of surface materials, such as thin films, films, coatings and interfaces.
How can surface expertise help the watch industry?
Knowledge of the properties and surface conditions of a material can help you adapt your manufacturing processes. Thus, it is possible to implement surface treatment or cleaning processes. The support of a specialised laboratory will provide you with the expertise and multi-layer analysis tools necessary to optimise your performance.
Our services and techniques for customised surface analysis
