At Bucci Composites, innovation is not only about materials and processing technologies, but also about production process management. Today, digital traceability represents one of the defining elements of our industrial organization: a structured, advanced and fully integrated system capable of real-time monitoring of every production phase of carbon fiber components.
From QR Code to Component History
Every production order launched at Bucci Composites generates a unique QR code, linked to a digital detection system that follows the component throughout the entire production flow. This code enables the automatic and continuous recording of information related to each phase of the process:
- Cutting
- Preforming and lamination
- Polymerization in autoclave or press
- Demolding
- Bonding and assembly
- Mechanical machining (CNC machining / trimming)
- Painting
- Quality control
- Shipping
In each of these phases, the following are automatically tracked: the part number, the operator, the timestamp, the workstation and the reference to the material batch. This system guarantees complete traceability of the process and raw materials, up to the finished product. The entire flow is monitored in real time and integrated with the company’s ERP system.
Traceability as a Tool for Quality, Safety and Diagnostics
In the field of composite materials, precision and repeatability are essential. The Bucci Composites traceability system makes it possible to continuously monitor production progress and analyze data for quality management and non-conformity control.
In the event of a non-conformity, the system allows immediate identification of the process phase in which the issue originated. For example: a dimensional defect may be linked to a specific mold, identified and corrected promptly; or, in the case of human error, traceability enables targeted training interventions for the involved operator.
The Bucci Composites traceability system complies with the highest industrial quality and safety standards and is certified according to the IATF 16949 standard, ensuring full alignment with international automotive industry requirements.

Digitalization and Industrial Culture: a Structured Reality
Traceability at Bucci Composites is an integral part of a structured and modern industrial model. Every phase — from lamination to autoclave curing, from bonding to quality control — is managed digitally, with centralized data enabling efficient and transparent oversight. This system, comparable to those of the leading European industrial organizations, allows for real-time monitoring of production flow, process performance and material availability.
KPI, Skill Management and Continuous Improvement
The digitalization of processes at Bucci Composites also results in an advanced data analysis capability. Through systematic collection of process information, key KPIs are calculated to measure production efficiency, the conformity rate and the effectiveness of resources. These data fuel a continuous improvement path and make it possible to optimize time, cost and quality.
The system also supports the management of operational skills (Operator Skill Management), allowing the monitoring of each operator’s experience level and the planning of targeted training programs according to identified needs. This approach enhances the human factor and ensures continuous growth of internal competencies.
A Benefit for the Customer and the Company
Traceability represents a concrete value both for Bucci Composites and for its customers. For the company, it means being able to verify, measure and improve every process; for the customer, it means receiving a fully inspected product, with a documented and verifiable history. This level of transparency and reliability strengthens mutual trust and consolidates Bucci Composites’ positioning as a technological partner of reference in the composites industry.
