Aritex Cading hired Hexagon Metrology Services of measurement to adjust some 40 useful of welding that they themselves had produced lines of welding of the side panels of the new model of the van Citroën Partner that has not yet come on the market. Each new project in the automotive sector is a large accumulation of workload and the added pressure of strict compliance with deadlines. As an example, in this project were established two teams, each of them consisting of two people, in order to meet the temporalization required Aritex Cading to meet deadlines imposed by the PSA group.
