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.
