MACHINERY The machinery industry has the ability to produce many kinds of machines at the point it has reached today. Production and exportation are carried out in a wide range ranging from many niche productions to machinery producing machines (machine tools). For instance; CNC machining; construction and mining machinery; agricultural and forest machinery; food processing machinery; plastic and rubber processing machinery; pumps and compressors; reactors and boilers; turbine, turbojet, turbopropeller, hydraulic cylinders and components; air conditioning machinery; rolling and casting machines; machines for paper production and printing; textile and apparel machinery; leather processing and manufacturing machines. The Turkish machinery industry manufactures and exports miscellaneous kinds of machinery and tools/accessories. The machinery and accessories exports of Türkiye by subsectors, the product group of “cooling machines for domestic and industrial usage” ranks first in the total machinery exports in 2022. The main export destinations of Turkish machinery in 2022, Germany ranks first with its share of 11,7% in our total. The USA with 8.04%, Russian Federation with 6.3%, Italy 4.7%, the UK 4.6%, France 4.1%, Spain 3,1%, Iraq 2.6%, Poland 2,5% and Romania 2.3% follow Germany in Türkiye's total machinery exports. In the distribution of sub-sectors of machinery in Türkiye’s main export destinations.
As machinery is a pioneering sector of development, the Turkish machinery has increased its share in Turkish exports consistently. Over the last 20 years, machinery export has increased 15-fold and the sector has exported to more than 200 countries, including free zones. Machinery products rank first in our exports to Germany, the USA and the Russian Federation. In the distribution of sub-sectors of machinery in Türkiye’s main export destinations, the picture reflects the overall distribution of sub-sectors in our total machinery exports. Moreover, the dependency of our main export markets on Turkish machinery reaches significant levels in some particular sub-groups of machinery.
