Balance Wheel Tuner

A breathing hairspring and oscillating balance you can retune in real time. Adjust effective hairspring length, balance inertia, frequency and temperature, and read the resulting rate on a live timing curve.

Suggested adjustment amount and thermal coefficient

Limits

A teaching model. It shows order and motion; it does not predict a result.
Parameter ranges are clamped. Extreme values are refused rather than rendered badly.
No WebGL, no problem — the 2D reference diagram carries the same information.

Simulation output is illustrative and not a measurement. Nothing on this page certifies a repair, guarantees timekeeping, or endorses a commercial product.
