What Does a Construction Mechanic Do?

Construction mechanics create a diverse range of steel and sheet metal constructions. At WUTRA, for instance, they fabricate screw conveyors. Why not take a look at our products?

The process begins with the manufacturing of individual parts. This involves cutting, bending, forming, and mechanically processing sheet metal using a variety of machines and technical equipment.

Profiles and pipes are also utilized. Round steel is cut to length and machined in our turning shop to produce drive and tail shafts. Once the individual components are ready, they are welded and bolted together to assemble modules.

In the final assembly stage, these parts and modules are assembled into complete pieces of machinery. After conducting functional checks, the products are prepared for shipping.

At the client’s site, our machinery must be installed and regularly serviced, which is also a part of the construction mechanic’s role.

Everything is based on technical drawings that guide the construction mechanic in understanding what the individual parts, modules, and finished machinery should look like, enabling them to plan all necessary work steps accordingly.

During your training, you’ll learn how to interpret plans, drawings, and parts lists. You’ll be taught how to fabricate components both manually and via mechanical processes. We’ll guide you through setting up machines and the preparatory steps necessary for successful component assembly.

What Do We Offer?

We provide comprehensive practical training across our diverse teams. You’ll learn about building complete machines from the first piece of sheet metal to the final screw, gaining insights into the broad and exciting field of sheet metal processing and metalworking.

You can definitely look forward to an exciting and varied apprenticeship! Once you’ve passed your exams, you’ll likely be offered a permanent position with WUTRA.

The dual study program combines theoretical studies at Berufsakademie Sachsen in Riesa with practical work at WUTRA.

The dual study program in mechanical engineering focuses on the close link between scientific principles and applied expertise.

If so, you’re the perfect fit for us!

What Does a Technical Product Designer Do?

As a technical product designer specializing in machine and system design, you’ll create 3D models of components and assemblies. From these 3D models, you’ll produce the production drawings that will enable your colleagues in manufacturing to build the components you've designed.

In developing machinery, you’ll adhere to various standards, operating templates, and customer specifications, and decide on the use of drives, standardized parts, and materials. In your design work, you’ll keep an eye on costs and pay attention to innovative design and assembly techniques.

What Do We Offer?

We provide sound practical training across our various teams. You'll become acquainted with the function and design of our machinery, from the initial sketches to complete project planning. You’ll work at a modern computer workstation using a variety of programs, including the 3D CAD software Autodesk Inventor for mechanical design and simulation.

During your apprenticeship, you’ll gain a broad perspective on the exciting and diverse tasks within our design department. After passing your exams, you’re likely to be offered a permanent position at WUTRA.
