Escapement

Escapement

The escapement mechanism is a commonly used mechanism in mechanical watches that controls the release of energy from the mainspring and regulates the movement of the watch hands. The escapement mechanism is a type of mechanical mechanism that transfers pulses to the balance wheel in the watch, helping it oscillate back and forth. With each oscillation of the balance wheel, the gear system in the watch is able to advance a fixed amount, causing the watch hands to move at a constant rate. The escapement mechanism also produces the repeated ticking sound in mechanical watches.
