METHOD FOR ADJUSTING THE OSCILLATION FREQUENCY, THE INERTIA OR THE BALANCE OF A MOBILE COMPONENT IN A MOVEMENT OR IN A BALANCE AND SPRING ASSEMBLY OF A TIMEPIECE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for adjusting the oscillation frequency of a balance and spring assembly. The method involves: removing and/or adding and/or moving material on at least one component of said assembly by exposing same to a pulse from a processing means in order to carry out the micromachining and/or micromelting of the material of said component or of an added material, and to vaporize and/or move and/or weld said material; and controlling said pulse using driving means arranged to generate, sequence, and interrupt any pulse, and to drive the movements of a beam of said processing means, said driving means being connected to or controlled by measurement or comparison means.
