Benefits of apprenticeships at Austropressen
The advantages of an apprenticeship at Austropressen speak for themselves. Get to know us now and get a taste of the job.
Your training with variety
All of our machines are designed and manufactured in Seewalchen. Many of our systems are now custom-built to customer specifications. This results in a wide range of tasks from planning, design, hydraulics and PLC programming to the assembly of the machines at the customer's premises. As an apprentice you will get to know all these areas. Exciting, isn't it?
Always up to dateTop modern workplaces
Up to date workplaces
The company favours the use of energy-efficient and sustainable elements in its product development, as well as in its own facilities. Investment is ongoing, most recently in new CNC and laser cutting machines, modern hall ventilation, environmentally friendly LED lighting and energy-saving heating with heat recovery. A 5,000m³ photovoltaic system has recently been installed on some of the roofs. In the spring of 2021, the new staff rooms for the now more than 50 employees were completed. In addition to completely new washrooms and changing rooms, there are spacious break rooms with plenty of space and a roof terrace for breaks.
Education & trainingVariety of technology
Technical education & training with variety
Specialising in environmental and recycling technology, Austropressen's products are used worldwide, but are still developed and manufactured entirely in Seewalchen. Many of the machines are now custom-built, designed to meet specific customer requirements. This results in a wide variety of tasks for the apprentices - from welding to hydraulic installation, from PLC programming to assembling the machines at the customer's site. During your apprenticeship you will be exposed to all areas. Thanks to our internal rotation system, our apprentices can quickly work at a high technical level and find out which specialist area interests them for the future.
Familiar working environment Highly motivated employees
Highly motivated employees
Austropressen Roither Maschinenbau GmbH has always placed great emphasis on the in-house training and development of its employees. For example, apprentices are integrated into production and the team right from the start (no isolated training workshop). This is also reflected in the low fluctuation figures: almost 70% of the current production staff have completed their training at Roither Maschinenbau GmbH or are currently in training. The high number of long-serving employees also underlines the good working atmosphere: 10 and 20 year anniversaries are not uncommon, but 30 and even 40 year anniversaries have also been celebrated. In 2023, we celebrated three employees who have been with Roither Maschinenbau for over 40 years.
