2024年5月14日星期二，赛迈道依茨法尔集团（简称SDF）在土耳其班迪尔马启动了一个占地10,000平方米的新工厂，致力于生产FARMotion发动机和精密加工。该举措是SDF集团国际扩张战略的重要组成部分。
在过去的十年中，土耳其工厂经历了持续的投资，目的不仅是满足市场的生产需要，而且是为了迎合欧洲市场的需求。
自2013年收购以来，Bandirma的拖拉机生产业务已经安装了一个新的喷漆设备，并进行了两次大规模扩建：第一次是在2019年，将生产面积从1万平方米增加到2万平方米，第二次是在2021年，将生产面积进一步增加到2.4万平方米。
自2013年Bandirma项目启动以来，集团已在生产基础设施、设备、机械和营运资金方面投资超过1亿欧元。由于这些持续的投资，土耳其工厂的拖拉机产量在十年内从1,000台增加到大约14,000台。
SDF集团首席执行官Lodovico Bussolati评论道:“随着FARMotion发动机新工厂的开业，SDF扩大了其在土耳其的生产范围，包括3,4和6缸发动机，发动机是制造拖拉机最关键的部件之一。它们不仅适用于本地市场，也适用于国际市场，尤其是要求高性能和高效率的欧洲市场。”
土耳其长期以来一直是SDF的重要战略国家，其市场份额持续增长，在过去十年中从1%上升到14%。2023年，土耳其市场的收入达到4.88亿欧元，是2022年的两倍多。
SDF土耳其首席执行官Giampaolo Cameli表示:“由于参与者的专业化和高度先进拖拉机的采用，本土农业部门正在经历重大变革。发动机和变速箱等核心部件的国产化在推动这一增长方面发挥了重要作用。”
土耳其工厂已成为SDF集团45至130马力拖拉机设计和生产的卓越中心;该公司目前拥有600多名员工，而2014年只有100人。

On Tuesday, 14 May 2024, SDF launched a new 10,000-square-metre factory in Bandirma, Turkey, dedicated to the production of FARMotion engines and precision machining. The facility is an integral part of the Group's strategy for international expansion.
Over the past decade, the Turkish site has undergone continuous investment, aimed not only at satisfying the production needs of the domestic market but also at catering to the demands of European markets.
Since its acquisition in 2013, the tractor production operations in Bandirma have seen the installation of a new painting facility and two major expansions: the first in 2019, which doubled the production area from 10,000 square metres to 20,000 square metres, and the second in 2021, which further increased the size to 24,000 square metres.
Since the Bandirma project commenced in 2013, the Group has invested over 100 million euros in production infrastructure, equipment, machinery and working capital. Owing to these sustained investments, production at the Turkish facility has risen from 1,000 to approximately 14,000 tractors over a decade.
Lodovico Bussolati, Group CEO, commented: “With the opening of the new factory focused on FARMotion engines, SDF expands its production in Turkey to include 3, 4, and 6-cylinder engines, undoubtedly among the most crucial components for manufacturing tractors. They are intended not just for the local market but also for international and, in particular, the exacting European market, which demands high performance and efficiency.”
Turkey has long been a strategically significant country for SDF, where it has experienced a consistent increase in market share, rising from 1% to 14% over the past decade. In 2023, the revenue from the domestic market reached 488 million euros, more than doubling the figure in 2022.
Giampaolo Cameli, CEO of SDF Turkey, said: “The agricultural sector is experiencing a significant transformation in our country, owing to the professionalisation of participants and the adoption of highly advanced tractors. The localisation of core components, such as the engine and transmission, plays a substantial role in driving this growth.”
The Turkish factory has become a centre of excellence for the design and production of SDF Group tractors between 45 and 130 HP; it now employs over 600 people, compared to 100 people in 2014.
