  The company R. Audemars SA announces a joint venture with the Company Tibbetts Inc. in the field of telecoils for hearing aids: Global Coils sagl.
   
   
  Customers can take advantage of the Company's existing technical expertise in micro-precision technologies and internal micro technology application for the development of new products and new solutions.
   
   
  R. Audemars SA is an independent Swiss Company, key manufacturer of high precision micro electro-mechanical components.Being in the watch business for over 100 years, the company has developed highly specialized technologies, machinery, as well as a specific know-how for the design, manufacturing and assembly of micro-components. This know-how is exploited in several specialized application fields.The main production facility and the Engineering Dept. are located in Switzerland, while the labour intensive components are made in the Chinese branch. Acting as a solution provider, the Company develops, assists, industrializes, produces and assembles micro components, according to Customers' requirements. High quality components and strict control of all important parameters, in the frame of ISO 9001:2000 certification, guarantee an indispensable support to the Customers in the high-tech micro-precision industry.
   
   
  The tendency is that the industry needs smaller components. R Audemars SA recently produced coils with dimensions of 0.6 x 1 mm. The wire size for this coil is 10µm in diameter, hardly visible. A human hair has an average dimension of 100µm or 0.1mm. Also making the coil is a challenge. The wire is hardly visible and must be handled with extreme care by using customized tools and skilful peoples . R Audemars SA produced this coil for a medical application and foresees further miniaturisation coming.
   
   
  In many fields, new developments require permanent magnets to be smaller and smaller, as well as more accurate. Please challenge us!
As the sizes are reducing, the pureness of the base material is getting more critical. With the reduction in size, the dependency of the material, machinery and skilled personnel is increasing. R. Audemars SA has it all, and can also provide an accurate micro assembly.
