Vocational training as an Industrial Mechanic / Mechanical and Plant Engineering (m/f/d) at WIRTGEN

Industrial mechanics are skilled in the tasks required for installing subassemblies or assembling complete machines. They can, for example, make use of their acquired knowledge and skills in customer service for the commissioning or repair of machines. In our company, industrial mechanics are employed in the areas of repairs and maintenance, production and assembly, and in customer service. You will manufacture components from various materials. In assembly, you construct subassemblies from the components and install them in our road construction machines and equipment. As an industrial mechanic, you first of all start the engine, activate all the machine systems and check the operational status of all functions and the fulfillment of quality parameters against a checklist. If necessary, you eliminate malfunctions and carry out any maintenance and repairs the machines and systems may require.

Training program

Your trainers will prepare you for your future career in the course of a three-and-a-half-year training program combining attendance of a vocational training college (the David-Röntgen-Schule in Neuwied) and in-house training in Windhagen. In the course of our in-house training schedule, you will acquire new skills and knowledge in around five of our company’s departments. Here are several examples of the comprehensive knowledge you will acquire in the various departments of our company:

• Training workshop: planning and machining of components with manually operated and CNC-controlled machines.
• Mechanical processing: The focus here is on the operation of a wide range of state-of-the-art machine tools and the production processes in which they are used.
• Final assembly: As a member of a team, you will assemble the prefabricated parts to produce complex construction equipment, check the finished products, and test them in operation.
• Programming station: You will program complex components on the basis of technical drawings and perform test runs.

In addition, we offer you in-house courses parallel to the learning content offered by the vocational training college to prepare you for examinations and your later working life.
