You don’t want to just watch – you want to be part of shaping the future? With us, you’ll find the perfect entry point into the world of mechanical engineering — whether through an apprenticeship or a dual study program.

We focus not only on teaching technical knowledge, but also on helping you develop your personal strengths. From day one, you’ll take on responsibility, work independently, and apply what you’ve learned in theory directly to real projects. And of course — with fair pay.

And the best part?

If you show commitment and motivation, your chances of being hired after graduation are excellent — because we believe in training our future team ourselves.

Throughout your program, experienced mentors will guide and support you. You’ll be challenged — but more importantly, encouraged.

Our mission: We train our own future — and maybe you’ll be part of it.
