Dirinler Makina

What Dirinler Makina does

Dirinler Makina Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. is a Turkish industrial machinery manufacturer founded in 1952 by A. Cemal Dirin in İzmir, operating today as a privately-held family enterprise within the Dirinler Şirketler Grubu (which comprises seven companies and approximately 450 employees). The company designs and manufactures metal sheet forming press machines, including eccentric presses, hydraulic presses, knuckle joint (bone-joint) form presses, link drive presses, and servo motor-driven presses, with capacities spanning 60 to 3,000 tons. It operates an integrated production footprint on 24,000 sqm in the İzmir Atatürk Organized Industrial Zone, including an in-house foundry established in 1974, and runs a Ministry-certified R&D Center focused on smart machine and energy-efficient press development.

The company sells directly to industrial customers through its İzmir factory and regional sales offices in Istanbul and Bursa, with a wholly-owned German subsidiary (Dirinler GmbH in Krefeld, established 2018) serving European markets and exports reaching 38+ countries. Its named enterprise customers span automotive OEMs and tier-1 suppliers (Toyota, Mercedes, Bosch, Gestamp, ZF, ABB), white goods manufacturers (Arçelik, Vaillant, Daikin), and general industrial firms (Demir Döküm, Franke, Yılmaz Redüktör). Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales of standard and custom-engineered press machines, supplemented by after-sales services including commissioning, spare parts (with a 10-year minimum availability guarantee), reconditioning, and periodic maintenance, plus free investment consulting for custom projects. Distribution of CNC machine tools under the Drinns brand extends the product surface into a related equipment category. Marketing is conducted through a multi-channel approach anchored by participation in major international trade shows and direct enterprise sales relationships.
