assembly, inspection, supply chain, marketing, sales, and service of a product. In fact
quality control permeates all the processes involved in chiseling out an engineered
product. One company that ensures impeccable quality of products in the manufacturing

It is also essential to obtain the repeatability of the tank
manufacturing line, and this is the reason why FACCIN GROUP
has developed CNC software that guarantees excellent results.
The success of the CNC is also the result of a complete
redesign of the hydraulic circuit including the choice of its
components and a PLC software ready to receive the CNC input.
Consequently, at Faccin Group we have implemented the use
of high-quality market-standard technical solutions of hydraulic
components and various designs to ensure that all axis of the
machines can be operated simultaneously.
The company has also taken into deep consideration the

consumption and carbon footprint.
