Etat de la technique [0002] Le document EP 0 468 467 divulgue un procédé de production d’une pièce de précision en fer ou alliage de fer, la pièce étant formée d’un corps fritté obtenu par moulage de poudre, ledit procédé comportant les étapes consistant à former un mélange homogène constitué essentiellement de poudre de fer ou d’alliage de fer et d’un liant organique, à façonner le mélange en un corps moulé de forme prescrite, à enlever sous une atmosphère inerte le liant organique du corps moulé, à réduire ladite poudre de fer ou d’alliage de fer que contient le corps moulé pour en retirer l’oxygène, à former un corps moulé réduit et à fritter le corps moulé réduit. Dans le procédé décrit, le moulage est réalisé par moulage par injection et seules des pièces de fer sont fabriquées.State of the art Document EP 0 468 467 discloses a process for producing a precision piece of iron or iron alloy, the piece being formed from a sintered body obtained by powder molding, said process comprising steps of forming a homogeneous mixture consisting essentially of iron powder or iron alloy and an organic binder, forming the mixture into a molded body of prescribed shape, removing the organic binder from the molded body under an inert atmosphere , reducing said iron or iron alloy powder contained in the molded body to remove oxygen therefrom, forming a reduced molded body and sintering the reduced molded body. In the process described, the molding is carried out by injection molding and only pieces of iron are produced.
[0003] Le document EP 1 172 453 divulgue un procédé de fabrication d’un outil de moulage de forme finale doté d’une surface structurée de moule présentant une structure uniforme de surface, ledit procédé comportant les étapes suivantes: a) fabriquer un moule en verre ou en matière plastique doté d’une surface de moule permettant de former la surface structurée de l’outil de moulage, b) revêtir la surface du moule en verre ou en matière plastique d’au moins un matériau de manière à former un corps plaqué dans le moule en verre ou en matière plastique, c) retirer le corps de placage présentant la surface structurée du moule en verre ou en matière plastique et d) lier le corps de placage à un corps de base pour former l’outil de moulage de forme finale à surface de moulage structurée. Le revêtement du moule est réalisé par exemple par pulvérisation thermique. Les matériaux utilisés pour le corps de placage sont par exemple des matériaux métalliques ou céramiques à haut point de fusion, des alliages de nickel et de chrome, des alliages à base de cobalt et des carbures étant inclus dans ces matériaux.Document EP 1 172 453 discloses a method of manufacturing a molding tool of final shape provided with a structured mold surface having a uniform surface structure, said method comprising the following steps: a) manufacturing a mold made of glass or plastic with a mold surface for forming the structured surface of the molding tool, b) coating the surface of the mold in glass or plastic with at least one material so as to form a body plated in the glass or plastic mold, c) removing the plating body having the structured surface of the glass or plastic mold and d) bonding the plating body to a base body to form the tool final form molding with structured molding surface. The coating of the mold is carried out for example by thermal spraying. The materials used for the plating body are for example metallic or ceramic materials with a high melting point, alloys of nickel and chromium, alloys based on cobalt and carbides being included in these materials.
[0004] On connaît plusieurs procédés de production de films polymères, par exemple ceux divulgués dans le document US 2008 0 176 034, dans lequel plusieurs couches polymères sont produites sous la forme d’un film qui reproduit ainsi la surface d’un moule dotée de microstructures. Chaque couche est réalisée en poudre d’époxy pulvérisée sur le moule et fondue et durcie par une source d’infrarouge ou d’UV.Several processes are known for producing polymer films, for example those disclosed in document US 2008 0 176 034, in which several polymer layers are produced in the form of a film which thus reproduces the surface of a mold provided with of microstructures. Each layer is made of epoxy powder sprayed on the mold and melted and hardened by an infrared or UV source.
[0005] Le document US 5 301 415 divulgue un procédé de moulage d’un objet en appliquant des segments de matériau complémentaire et de matériau de dépôt de manière à former des couches de matière. Les couches de matière forment un bloc qui contient l’objet constitué d’un matériau déposé entouré par un matériau complémentaire qui sert de structure de support pendant le moulage. Ensuite, le matériau complémentaire est retiré. Le matériau complémentaire est retiré en chauffant le bloc, grâce à quoi le matériau complémentaire fond, le matériau déposé ne fondant pas dans les conditions de chauffage. Le matériau déposé et le matériau complémentaire sont de préférence appliqués par pulvérisation thermique, mais ils peuvent être appliqués par dépôt par soudage, à partir d’une suspension liquide, par gravité ou par tout moyen manuel, par exemple à l’aide d’un tamis manuel.Document US 5,301,415 discloses a method of molding an object by applying segments of complementary material and deposition material so as to form layers of material. The layers of material form a block which contains the object made of a deposited material surrounded by a complementary material which serves as a support structure during molding. Then the additional material is removed. The complementary material is removed by heating the block, whereby the complementary material melts, the deposited material not melting under the heating conditions. The deposited material and the complementary material are preferably applied by thermal spraying, but they can be applied by deposition by welding, from a liquid suspension, by gravity or by any manual means, for example using a manual sieve.
[0006] La technique antérieure connaît plusieurs méthodes et procédés de formation d’un moule constitué d’un matériau particulier. En outre, on connaît également des procédés et des méthodes de revêtement de la surface d’une pièce. Ces procédés de revêtement sont utilisés dans certaines conditions de température, de pression, etc. Les conditions de traitement dépendent par exemple du matériau de revêtement utilisé.The prior art knows several methods and methods for forming a mold made of a particular material. In addition, methods and methods are also known for coating the surface of a part. These coating methods are used under certain conditions of temperature, pressure, etc. The processing conditions depend, for example, on the coating material used.
[0007] Le post-traitement et la finition mécanique de pièces petites et qui doivent présenter une structure précise peuvent poser des difficultés. Ces difficultés augmentent au cas où la pièce ou la surface de la pièce doivent satisfaire des exigences poussées en termes de dureté, de résistance à l’abrasion et à l’usure, et de caractéristiques tribologiques comme dans la technologie de l’horlogerie. Par conséquent, il existe un besoin pour un procédé de fabrication de pièces d’horlogerie réalisées en différents matériaux ainsi que pour un moule correspondant et pour un procédé pour sa fabrication.Post-processing and mechanical finishing of small parts which must have a precise structure can pose difficulties. These difficulties increase in the event that the part or the surface of the part must meet advanced requirements in terms of hardness, resistance to abrasion and wear, and tribological characteristics as in watchmaking technology. Consequently, there is a need for a method of manufacturing timepieces made of different materials as well as for a corresponding mold and for a method for its manufacture.
[0008] Le document JPS 50 120 438 décrit un procédé de fabrication d’une pièce d’horlogerie dans lequel un moule présente la forme précise de la pièce à fabriquer. Un matériau est projeté dans le moule puis la pièce fabriquée est séparée du moule.Document JPS 50 120 438 describes a method of manufacturing a timepiece in which a mold has the precise shape of the part to be manufactured. A material is sprayed into the mold and then the manufactured part is separated from the mold.
[0009] Le document EP 1 974 838 décrit un procédé permettant de produire un moule en sel qui présente l’avantage de faciliter le démoulage.Document EP 1 974 838 describes a process for producing a salt mold which has the advantage of facilitating demolding.
[0010] Le document EP 2 400 353 concerne un procédé de fabrication d’une aiguille comprenant les étapes de: se munir d’un négatif de l’aiguille à réaliser; se munir d’un matériau comprenant au moins un élément métallique du type précieux et étant apte à se solidifier au moins partiellement en phase amorphe; mettre en forme ledit matériau dans le négatif de sorte à obtenir ladite aiguille; et séparer ladite aiguille dudit négatif.Document EP 2 400 353 relates to a method for manufacturing a needle comprising the steps of: providing a negative of the needle to be produced; be provided with a material comprising at least one metallic element of the precious type and being able to solidify at least partially in the amorphous phase; shaping said material in the negative so as to obtain said needle; and separating said needle from said negative.
[0011] Les documents GB 295 844 et JP 2 956 493 décrivent un moule pour la production d’un composant horloger.Documents GB 295 844 and JP 2 956 493 describe a mold for the production of a watch component.
