You will spend the first two years of your apprenticeship at libs - Industrielle Berufslehren Schweiz in Rapperswil, where you will complete your basic training. You will learn the following skills: milling (conventional and CNC), turning (conventional and CNC), filing, drilling, thread cutting, reaming, assembly, pinning and electropneumatics.
You will spend the third and fourth year of your apprenticeship in our training workshop. You will spend 10 months each in the milling and turning areas, learning to operate and programme the most complex CNC-controlled machines. You will get to know a wide variety of machine types, from simple three-axis machines to milling and turning centres with five fully synchronised axes and robot equipment.
During this time, you will also learn how to create 3D models and drawings in CAD, which you will then need for CAM programming. You will learn how to take a strategically skilful approach to programming and which machining strategies and tool technologies are available.
In addition to working in the training workshop, you will spend a two-month training block familiarising yourself with quality assurance activities. To familiarise you with our entire company, you will also be introduced to the work of the sales, production planning and control, logistics and polyurethane casting departments.
At the end of the apprenticeship, you will complete your final project (IPA) in one of the two areas of milling and turning.
