If you like to assemble a case from many individual clues like a detective, and imagine that you can transfer this to a technical problem, the mechanical and plant engineering industry is under a mechanical point of view the ideal place for you.

Industrial Mechanics of these species are active in the production and maintenance of machines and production systems. You work alone or in a team in the individual and small-volume assembly. Your task comprises mainly the assembly of prefabricated parts for all types of machines and their linkage to systems. Before and after commissioning, you constantly take out a variety of checks. Modern technologies, such as the control with the help of pneumatic and hydraulic industrial mechanics, remain not unfamiliar. In addition, you will learn the machining of components using machining tools such as lathes and milling machines.

Desired Education:
At least good secondary school

Required soft skills:
Logical thinking, spatial imagination, matching skills and technical understanding
