BYD celebrated the inauguration of its Thailand plant in Rayong, Thailand, which is BYD's first wholly-owned passenger car factory outside of China. As a strategic partner of BYD, Fives provided 9 sets of filling equipment for BYD's Thailand factory, supporting BYD to accelerate the release of production capacity and its global expansion.
The factory covers an area of nearly 1 million square meters, with an annual capacity of 150,000 vehicles. The facility encompasses processes of stamping, painting, welding, final assembly, and producing car components. As one of the key equipment in the vehicle assembly workshop, Fives provided BYD's factory in Thailand with 2 sets of AC-BK-CL three-in-one online filling machine, 2 sets of CL-CL2-AC-WW four-in-one online filling machine, and 5 sets of repair filling machine.
BYD completed its Thailand plant in just 16 months, setting the shortest record from construction to production that Chinese auto companies invested in Thailand.
Fives' filling equipment was one of the first to arrive at the assembly workshop of BYD's factory in Thailand. From the signing of the contract to the delivery of the equipment, Fives only took five months, greatly accommodating BYD's construction and production schedule requirements.
Thanks to Fives' extensive and professional branch and service network overseas, as well as its professional project management capabilities, the installation and commissioning work was also completed on schedule as planned. Fives' commissioning engineers were already in place in Thailand before the arrival of the equipment, and at the same time, Fives has experienced local partners in Thailand who can cooperate with Fives' engineers for on-site installation. After the installation and commissioning, Fives actively cooperated to meet the training needs of BYD's factory in Thailand, sending experienced engineers to the site to provide technical and operational training to customers, ensuring that customers quickly grasp the essentials of equipment operation.
