There are only five axles in standard.
\"At a time when the world\'s human labor force is still trying to determine whether artificial intelligence applications and automation will disrupt social stability, or just bring room service orders faster, the Swiss watch industry has the same disagreement.

It allows us to create complex situations that are difficult to do by hand. ”Mr.
He founded his own factory in 1989 and launched his own watch brand in 2009.
He produces about 100 complex clocks a year and is considered the most complex in the industry.

\"It can test accuracy, detect faults and record performance at locations that simulate human wrist movements.
\"It can even work on weekends, so when the watchmaker returns to the factory on Monday, the machine has completed the timing control they need to start assembling immediately.
\"The robot can also save the performance history of each action to the database and record the information of each component . \"Cavadini said.
Since the robot has completed the performance test and data registration, Panerai can look up the complete pre-set of the watch

Still, Panerai has had to take steps to alleviate the anxiety of workers, including ensuring that the noise levels of the machine do not exceed the standard and holding a meeting to answer questions.
