Same Deutz-Fahr (SDF) inaugurates a new competence center on the electric platform in Shanghai, China. This marks a further step in strengthening the international presence and technological innovation capabilities of the SDF group.
The new center has been opened with the aim of enhancing local expertise in one of the main industrial areas, dedicated to technological and electrical innovation, integrating it with the expertise already established within SDF.
The Shanghai center will focus on technological development, with particular attention to electrification, a strategic area for the future of agricultural mechanization. Leveraging SDF’s strong role in the specialized tractor sector, the aim is to accelerate technological innovation in order to maintain its position in complex market segments.
Thanks to the electrical engineering expertise already internalized at SDF, including through the recent acquisition of VitiBot, the new hub will support the Group’s R&D centers in the development of advanced solutions, promoting the integration of global know-how and highly specialized local skills.
“The inauguration of the new competence center in Shanghai represents a strategic investment for the future of SDF,” said Lodovico Bussolati, CEO of SDF. “This hub allows us to get even closer to one of the most dynamic global contexts in terms of technological innovation, enhancing high-profile local skills and strengthening the development of solutions related to electrification, in full continuity with the path of growth and technological integration already underway at SDF”.
The Shanghai competence center will work closely with the group’s other R&D centers, contributing to the development of new solutions, sustainably focused on the needs of international markets, with the aim of supporting SDF’s long-term competitiveness.
