The position

Machine. Tool. Process.

Your main focus is independently setting up our Bihler automatic stamping and bending machines as well as further equipment from Lafranconi and SCHAAL. Setting up involves not only the tool itself but also material feeds, bending and auxiliary units, and thread-forming or thread-cutting units. After setup, you start up the machine and inspect the first parts against the drawing and inspection plan. If dimensions or functions are not yet right, you analyse the cause systematically: is an adjustment to the machine or process parameters enough, or does a punch, a bend or another tool component need to be modified? You describe and discuss any necessary tool modifications directly with our in-house toolmaking department. After the modification, you put the tool back into operation and check the result. You are then responsible for a stable series process that meets the quality requirements.

What you bring

Experience. Process understanding. Personal responsibility.

Ideally, you have completed an apprenticeship as a stamping and forming mechanic. Toolmakers, industrial mechanics or skilled workers from a comparable metalworking trade who have experience in setting up complex production equipment are equally welcome. Experienced setters from other technical production areas can also learn stamping and bending technology with us. What matters is that you do not just operate a machine but understand tool, process and quality as one interconnected system.
