Localization

LOCALIZATION POSSIBILITIES

Sampo Rosenlew Ltd can provide an affordable and exceptional way to purchase and sell always up to date combine harvesters. We are in a continuous search for long term partnerships with companies who have an understanding for mutual benefits of a local manufacturing.

SUB-ASSEMBLED COMBINES

In addition to our ready-made products, we can provide sub-assembled combines. The distinctive advantages of module delivery enables optimized freight costs in containers and fast shipping. Every combine we provide can be produced according to our latest innovations and enhancements.

WORK WITH EXPERIENCED PARTNER

A local assembly project is always a long term partnership, where both parties are committed to a common project for several years.

BENEFIT FROM LOCALIZATION

In co-operation with Sampo Rosenlew a local manufacturer can start its own production operations and as the know-how grows, they can start their own after sales business.

Local manufacturing enables our partner to use local suppliers, labor and finances.

ONE-OF-A-KIND DEAL

Additional to any other combine harvester manufacturer, we don’t only localize assembly, but also localize part manufacturing, welding, machining and even supply management.

Sampo Rosenlew is the only combine harvester manufacturer offering this kind of co-operation.

CUSTOMIZED PRODUCT FOR YOUR NEEDS

While our combine harvesters were originally designed for the challenging harvesting conditions occurring in northern latitudes, they are equally well suited for use in hot and dry climates. 

Sampo Rosenlew combine harvesters are used to harvest wheat as well as rice or any other crop in different conditions all around the world.

MODULES & KNOW-HOW

We provide pre-assembled modules, know-how and education as well as a comprehensive documentation. On site supervision is also available for our partners. Assembling combine from modules on site will help our partner to lower the total costs.

PRODUCTION ENGINEERING

We can provide know-how to our partner with the support of our specialists, who are available when starting the assembly project in a local factory. One of the most important parts of this support is quality. First products or new models will be audited by our quality specialists. All quality requirements are the same as for combines coming from our own factory in Finland.

PRODUCTION ADVICE & TRAINING

Every project has its own detailed training programs. Programs are based on a local specification, localizations, technology level and local know-how. Each new localized component has its own training first at our factory and then in the local factory. The key issue is training by doing. Every new localized component  is only released after the certain quality steps.

TRAINING & EDUCATION

We will also organize field trainings for local service people. Service people will learn to work with final customers in field conditions. This training also includes how to train customers to use the full capacity of his new Sampo Rosenlew combine harvester. Our field engineers will visit frequently in fields in order to train but also to increase the knowledge of chancing varieties and conditions. 

EDUCATING LOCAL FARMERS

We will bring a new level of agricultural technology to our partner country. This means that also local farmers should be trained to new machinery and technical aspects. Only by proper training to local farmers we can ensure full benefit of new machinery. This will increase the yields, decrease grain losses, increase uptime and maximize the harvesting capacity.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Technical support will be available in all major languages directly from our factory. There are specialists for different kinds of  support: manufacturing engineering, research and design, service, spare parts, sales… In every project there is a project team. People in the local manufacturing site know by name their own support personnel and can contact them directly.
