Tipps und Entscheidungshilfen für die Ausbildungswahl

Production specialists are a crucial link between employees and management. They have to put their leadership skills, in-depth specialist knowledge and understanding of interrelationships in production and operations into practice every day. As part of a team, they manufacture sophisticated parts and products for the mechanical, electrical and metal industries. In order to optimize the work processes, the technically demanding production process is planned accordingly and the necessary work steps are initiated.

Production specialists are familiar with the structure and functions of internal production systems and internal interrelationships. They are able to reduce or completely eliminate downtime. Errors in production and development processes are completely prevented by these specialists. Another important area is the production of individual parts and assemblies, which must be calculated accurately and processed cost-effectively. Production specialists can help decide on investments and the maintenance of the value of machines, tools and production equipment in the company. They maintain, service and repair equipment and recognize at an early stage when something needs to be replaced. They also procure raw materials, auxiliary and operating materials, semi-finished and finished products - always cost-optimized, of course.
