Success Story: Fakini Accelerates Its Journey Toward Industry 4.0 with EAS

In the competitive textile market, innovation is no longer an option — it’s a necessity. With this mindset, Fakini decided to make a major investment in modernizing its dye house. The challenge was significant: transforming traditional, often manual processes into fully automated, precise, and connected operations. To achieve this technological leap, the company chose EAS as its strategic partner — and the result was a true revolution toward Industry 4.0.

The Challenge: Boosting Productivity and Quality Through Automation

Fakini’s factory, a national reference in children’s clothing production, faced challenges that affected its competitiveness:

• Manual processes that were time-consuming and prone to errors.
• Wasted time and chemicals due to manual weighing of auxiliary products.
• Production times that showed room for efficiency improvements.

These bottlenecks reduced efficiency and limited operational flexibility, creating a scenario that demanded change.

The EAS Solution: Cutting-Edge Technology and Integration

After a thorough assessment, EAS proposed a complete automation solution that combined advanced technology, connectivity, and practicality. The modernization included:

• PCT310 Machine Controller: Implemented across the renovated fleet of machines, it provided customized automation tailored to Fakini’s needs. The result: higher precision, reduced variability, and much faster processes.

• MES InfoTint System: The heart of the digital transformation. All dyeing and finishing recipes are now centrally managed and digitized, enabling real-time monitoring, full traceability, and standardized production.

• TexPes Weighing Control: The dye scales were connected to the system, ensuring accurate dosing and automatic inventory control. This minimized human error, reduced rework, and optimized raw material usage.
• TecnoDos – Automatic Chemical Dosing System: A true game changer. TecnoDos took over the dosing and transfer of liquid products directly to the machines, eliminating manual tasks, reducing waste, and creating a cleaner, safer, and more ergonomic work environment.

Results: Efficiency, Quality, and Sustainability at a New Level

The benefits for Fakini were immediate and transformative:

• Operational Efficiency
• Automation significantly reduced setup times, sped up production cycles, and increased productivity without compromising quality.
• Consistent Quality
• Standardized recipes and precise dosing improved reproducibility, reduced variability, and ensured excellence in every production batch.
• Sustainability and Cost Reduction
• Lower material waste and smarter resource use directly reduced costs and improved the sustainability of operations.
• Real-Time Management
• Integration between MES InfoTint and TecnoDos provided complete visibility and control over production, enabling faster decision-making and boosting Fakini’s competitiveness.
• Safety and Ergonomics
• The elimination of manual operations and a cleaner, more organized workspace improved working conditions and employee safety.
