Coil Winding Technician

Introduction

A large transformer is built step by step, and you contribute to an important part of it: the winding set. You isolate, bend, finish, and check if everything is correct before the product continues in the process. As a Coil Construction Mechanic, you work on technically high-quality products that are ultimately used in energy networks around the world. Do you have technical insight and an eye for quality? Then this is a great job for you.

Organization

This organization is active in transformer technology and develops technical solutions that play a significant role in the energy supply of tomorrow. At the modern production site in Nijmegen, approximately 400 colleagues work daily on large transformers, with quality, safety, and innovation at the forefront.

You will be working in the Coil Construction department. Here, windings are assembled into complete winding sets for transformers. Within this department, craftsmanship, precision work, and good collaboration with colleagues are key. There is also room to contribute ideas for improvements in the work process.

Function

As a Coil Winding Technician, you work on preparing, assembling, and finishing windings. You engage in activities such as insulating, bending, and custom-making leads. You also apply insulation materials and place parts such as spigots, cylinders, covers, and collars.

During the process, you supervise the oven process and press windings to achieve the correct dimensions. Then, you further finish the windings and prepare them for assembly. Ultimately, you assemble complete winding sets and press them into a finished product.

Because you work with large technical products, you move windings using overhead cranes. Additionally, you perform visual quality checks and work according to safety and hygiene guidelines. Together with your colleagues, you ensure that each component is carefully built up and ready for the next step in the production process. You work according to these shift times: Day shift (Monday to Friday) 06:45 - 15:30, Evening shift (Monday to Thursday) 15:30 - 0:15 and on Friday 15:00 - 21:00, Night shift (Monday to Thursday) 0:00 - 07:00.
