Why This Zerspanungstechnologe Role at Winkelmann Stands Out
Außergewöhnliche Bauteile — Luft- und Raumfahrt bis Wehrtechnik: Machine precision metallic components that contribute to vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft, industrial systems, and defence applications — CNC Zerspanung at Winkelmann MSR is not producing commodity parts but technically demanding components where every dimension and surface quality directly affects the performance and safety of the application they serve
Volle Prozesskette — Planung bis Optimierung: Strategic and operational responsibility across the entire process chain from technical planning and calculation through production introduction and sustainable manufacturing optimisation — a Zerspanungstechnologe role with genuine end-to-end ownership rather than a narrowly defined machining operator function
Tarifgebundenes Familienunternehmen — Attraktives Gesamtpaket: Collective bargaining agreement (Tarifgebunden), 30 Urlaubstage, company pension contributions (Altersvorsorgewirksame Leistungen), Corporate Benefits platform, intensive personal onboarding, and a personal atmosphere in a modern family business — an employer that respects its skilled workers and reflects that in concrete benefits
Motiviertes Team & Spannende Tätigkeiten: Work in a motivated team on diverse and exciting CNC machining challenges — umformtechnisch and thermally processed workpieces from aerospace and defence applications demand the highest precision, problem-solving, and continuous improvement commitment that makes this role professionally rewarding for an ambitious Zerspanungstechnologe
Position Overview — Zerspanungstechnologe (m/w/d), Winkelmann MSR Technology Ahlen
This Zerspanungstechnologe (m/w/d) at Winkelmann MSR Technology GmbH in Ahlen plans, develops, optimises, and implements manufacturing processes in the CNC machining of formed (umformtechnisch) and thermally processed components — takes on operational and strategic tasks along the entire process chain from technical planning through calculation to production introduction, optimisation, and sustainable further development of manufacturing — ensures the highest quality standards — and programmes, sets up, and operates CNC machines — in a tarifgebundenes modern family business producing high-precision metallic components and assemblies for Fahrzeugtechnik, Luft- und Raumfahrt, Industrie-, and Wehrtechnik applications.
Why This Role Matters: As Zerspanungstechnologe at Winkelmann MSR Technology in Ahlen, the machining precision and process engineering discipline you bring to your work contributes to some of the most demanding engineering applications in existence — components that must perform without failure in automotive safety systems, aircraft structures, space hardware, and defence applications where dimensional accuracy, surface quality, and material integrity are not commercial preferences but functional necessities. When your CNC programme correctly sequences the machining operations for a thermally processed aerospace component in a way that controls distortion and maintains dimensional stability through the full cutting sequence, your process optimisation correctly identifies that a tooling change on a particular operation will reduce tool wear rate by a third without compromising surface finish — and that improvement multiplies across thousands of identical components over the production run, or your Fertigungseinführung for a new vehicle component correctly translates the technical drawing into a reliable, cycle-time-efficient CNC process that the team can operate consistently without your daily involvement — you are not operating a machine. You are applying the specialist combination of machining knowledge, process engineering judgment, and CNC programming expertise that makes precision metallic component manufacturing genuinely reliable. From the centre of the earth to the expanses of space, as Winkelmann puts it — the components they produce depend on Zerspanungstechnologen like you getting it exactly right.
Key Responsibilities — Ihre Aufgaben
CNC Fertigungsprozesse — Planung, Entwicklung & Optimierung
- Plan, develop, optimise, and implement manufacturing processes in the CNC machining of umformtechnisch (formed) and thermally processed metallic components — applying specialist Zerspanungstechnologe expertise to develop reliable, cycle-time-efficient, and quality-assured CNC machining processes for the demanding precision component applications that Winkelmann MSR serves in Fahrzeugtechnik, Luft- und Raumfahrt, Industrie-, and Wehrtechnik
- Take on operational and strategic tasks along the entire process chain — from technical planning and Kalkulation (cost calculation) through Fertigungseinführung (production introduction), continuous optimisation, and the sustainable further development of manufacturing processes and capabilities at the Ahlen site
- Drive the sustainable further development of CNC manufacturing — identifying process improvement opportunities, evaluating new machining technologies, tooling developments, and programming approaches that advance the efficiency, quality consistency, and flexibility of Winkelmann MSR’s precision component manufacturing
CNC Programmieren, Einrichten & Bedienen
- Programme CNC machines — developing and optimising CNC programmes for the machining of umformtechnisch and thermally processed components, applying the machining technology knowledge and programming discipline that transforms part drawings into reliable, cycle-time-optimised cutting strategies that produce consistent dimensional accuracy and surface quality across production runs
- Set up CNC machines (Einrichten) — performing the setup activities, tooling selection and adjustment, work-holding configuration, and datum setting that prepare CNC equipment for new or changed production operations, with the precision and systematic approach that ensures first-part correctness and setup repeatability
- Operate CNC machines (Bedienen) — monitoring CNC machining operations, making the real-time process adjustments that maintain dimensional compliance, tool condition awareness, and surface quality through production runs, and responding to the process variations and equipment alerts that arise in daily CNC production with the experienced judgment that a qualified Zerspanungstechnologe brings
Qualitätssicherung & Eigenverantwortliche Arbeitsweise
- Ensure the highest quality standards (Sicherstellung höchster Qualitätsstandards) — applying a hohes Qualitätsbewusstsein to every aspect of the machining process from first-off inspection through in-process measurement and final dimensional verification, with the quality responsibility consciousness that precision metallic component manufacturing for aerospace, defence, and automotive safety applications requires
- Work independently, responsibly, and precisely (selbstständige, eigenverantwortliche und präzise Arbeitsweise) — managing CNC machining tasks and process optimisation initiatives with the professional autonomy and personal accountability that a Zerspanungstechnologe at Winkelmann MSR is expected to exercise
- Apply SAP and MS Office competency — using enterprise resource planning and standard office tools for production documentation, material tracking, process records, and reporting activities that support the operational management of CNC manufacturing at Winkelmann MSR
Qualifications & Profile — Ihr Profil
Essential Requirements
- Abgeschlossene Ausbildung zum Zerspanungsmechaniker (m/w/d) — the foundational professional qualification in CNC machining that all Zerspanungstechnologen must hold
