Nivarox-FAR Industrial and human development >
The increase in the number of watch exports led Nivarox-FAR to commence important industrial developments in 2008 to enable the company to improve the chronometric precision of Swiss Made mechanical movements and strengthen its leadership position in its chosen area of activity, the production of escapements and oscillators. In order to be more reactive and flexible,cartier love necklace replica, the Replica Rolex Day-Date company therefore orientated its production towards greater innovation in both procedures and materials, so as to create escapements and oscillators with an even higher level of performance. To stay abreast of evolving technology, Nivarox-FAR also invested in the development, in all areas of its activity, of specific competences for its workforce, whose number has grown significantly in the past years. The company has been particularly attentive to training and transferofknow-how,sincethehighlyspecializedactivitiesindemand are not available in the market place. A focus was also placed on security of work processes. Thanks to the constant upgrading of its competences, the company managed to industrialize a number of new products such as its barrel springs and new materials like silicon. The Replica Breitling Bentley latest methods of production are entirely realized in-house by the technical department, according to the specific requirements of the company.
Tradition and new technologies >
2008 saw Nivarox-FAR progress on two fronts, allying tradition with technology. A foundry was set up for the metal casting dedicated to ferronickel balance-springs used in Swiss anchor escapements, which equip over 90% of Swiss Made mechanical watches. Thanks to the investments made, there was also a major rise in the Replica Breitling Navitimer level of production of components in silicon and by LIGA process, as well as an increase in the mass manufacture of gold diamond-polished appliques for dials. Work commenced on a second factory in Fontaines, near Neuchatel, in order to house under one roof these new activities and technologies and to offer the best conditions for their development and production. Designed to optimize the industrial flow, whilst at the same time respecting the environment and the wellbeing of its workforce, this new factory, whose first foundation stone was laid in November 2008, will be operational for production in 2009.
The production flow was also already optimized in May 2008 with the opening of the Villeret site in the Canton of Berne. A true jewel at the service of the science of chronometry, this new production unit of Nivarox-FAR, housed in an entirely renovated factory, also offers the latest in ergonomic developments, being equipped with new work tables, developed in partnership with a specialized institute. Finally, Nivarox-FAR contributed to a number of exhibitions organized by Swatch Group brands in 2008 in Lugano, Tokyo and Beijing, which showcased the minute dimensions and complexity of the watch components produced by the Replica Hublot big bang company for escapements and oscillators. Comadur 2008 saw the end of the organization rationalization for Comadur, the specialist in hard materials, following the geographic regroup- ing in the building of the Col-des-Roches (Switzerland), in December 2006, of the two main units,cartier love ring yellow gold price, Ceramic and Sapphire Crystal. Thanks to the recent investments in production tools, Comadur's sales showed a significant positive trend in all product lines.
The company also continued to expand its activities, developing new products and materials in partnership with different Swatch Group brands. Further to its success within the watch industry, and now used by nearly all the different watch segments, high-tech ceramic has recently been created in different colors and new and complex forms. The sapphire line saw its substrates evolve towards greater geometrical complexity, enabling the creation of new products. This evolution was reinforced both on the aesthetic front, with metallization and anti-reflective treatment, and on the functional level with tactile crystal, for the use of the Replica Panerai Luminor technique of fine layer deposition. The nanotechnologies that Comadur has put in place have become essential elements that the market demands.
The competitive advantage of the company is now based not only on the use of sapphire crystal, but also its integration into the value chain, which the company masters from start to finish. Activities linked to micro-technology lines - watch jewels and micro-magnets - enjoyed double-digit organic growth, thanks to the consistent demand for watch movements. Finally, Comadur developed very innovative processes relative to the external watch parts, enabling both the combining of a wide palette of different materials and also the incorporation of different technologies. The Replica Cartier Santos concrete realization of these projects will be presented by the different Swatch Group brands during 2009.
