As the name of the profession suggests, the main task of metal technology specialists, specializing in assembly technology is the assembly / pre-assembly / post-processing of individual components into assemblies, or of baugruppen into finished machines or products. From the individual part to the whole; because a good device, a product or a machine only works if the composition of its individual parts has the right recipe.

Metal technology specialists process components that have previously been manufactured by machine. They screw, pinn or rivet the components together to form groups. For larger workpieces, they work with lifting equipment. They align individual parts precisely and always have all dimensions in view.

You work with the industrial mechanics and fitters of an industrial company, generally by pre-machining or re-machining assemblies. For example, you saw the parts to size, or you polish them after they are finished. Metal technology specialists specializing in assembly technology also work in the production of recurring components and on manageable assemblies. In the manufacturing and assembly process, they therefore essentially carry out preparatory assembly activities.

Training and requirements

You have a great interest in metal as a material, in physics and mathematics and work patiently, carefully and precisely. It is a dual training, in which the training time takes place partly in school and partly in your company. The vocational school will teach you the necessary background knowledge.

During your training, you will learn how to read and understand technical documents such as technical drawings and parts lists correctly. You will also learn everything about the manufacture, assembly, disassembly and testing of components and assemblies.
You will also comply with test plans and test specifications so that you can check the quality of your workpieces accordingly.

You know all the regulations and safety rules that apply in your company and that are important
when working with electrical equipment, and you know which occupational health and safety and
accident prevention regulations there are so that you can work safely. You should have a technical understanding in order to be able to correctly visualise the workpieces that you process. You should also have good dexterity with your hands and fingers.

What does this training mean at W. MÜLLER?

With us you will put theoretical knowledge into practice. You will pre-assemble the smallest components into assemblies and thus work in our assembly department.

You will also be able to work in our polishing department. Here, finished components are reworked and refined. You will be shown how to select and use the appropriate tools, materials and aids.

You will mainly work with metal and in our workshop, where it can sometimes be noisy. In return, you will work in a very practical way and are just the right person if you don't like to sit at a desk all day.

You will have the opportunity to gain an insight into all our manufacturing processes and other departments, as we have a very open and logical manufacturing and assembly network.

Legally, there is no prescribed school-leaving qualification to be able to start the apprenticeship. At our company, a secondary school leaving certificate is desirable, but not compulsory. Convince us of your motivation and commitment and possibly do the training together with your secondary school leaving certificate!
