India’s wind industry is growing fast, with increasing demand for high-quality machinery to back its expansion. The country’s wind energy sector has made steady progress, driven by a homegrown wind power industry.
The Indian government has set an ambitious national renewable energy goal of 509 GW by 2030, including 110 GW of wind. To achieve this target, India needs to accelerate the deployment and commissioning of wind power projects significantly. As the wind energy sector keeps evolving, the need for cutting-edge plate rolling machines has increased significantly. Faccin aims to lead this changing era, offering unparalleled solutions tailored for the wind energy sector.

Offshore Foundation Manufacturing
Plate bending machines are crucial for the manufacturing of wind foundations like monopiles, jackets, tripods, transition pieces (TPs) and floating structures.
Faccin rolling systems blend precision, power, efficiency and high productivity. Their robust design with a heavy-duty base frame enables the bending of plates over 150 mm thick to form cans and cones. Moreover, integrated safety devices ensure secure operations.
These rolling systems are designed to achieve powerful bending force for precise pre-bending. They feature an electronic balancing system for maximum precision, optimised automatic calibration for efficiency, an effective hydraulic system for high speed and low power consumption, micro positioning technology for repeatability, and special transmission and centralised lubrication systems for reliability.
Offshore and onshore towers manufacturing
Wind tower production blends advanced engineering, steel fabrication and quality control to build sturdy structures for harsh environments.
Plate bending systems are vital, shaping flat steel into cylindrical cansthat are welded to create tower sections. The Faccin Wind Tower Automation System allows the production of hundreds of cans and cones monthly, handling plate thickness over 100 mm.
The setup boasts a sturdy 4-roll plate rolling machine with innovative tech-based accessories for full automation. It includes devices integrated with the machine for secure operations, an advanced hydraulic system for efficiency, a motorized feeding table with alignment device, top and side supports, a clamping system for on-board tack-welding and efficient handling systems.
