Metallbildner/Metallbildnerin Fachrichtung Metalldrücktechnik

In Germany, Metal Şekillendirme Uzmanları (Metal Bükme Tekniği) produce rotationally symmetrical hollow bodies using manual craftsmanship or automatic bending machines. These bodies are typically transformed into products such as vases, pots, container bases, or valve bodies. Professionals in this field design workpieces according to customer requirements and transfer these designs into technical drawings using computer software. They prepare negative molds for the hollow body to be produced, known as "Drückfutter" (spinning chucks), from steel or plastic. They then cut metal sheets or stamp out metal disks and shape them around the molds on spinning lathes (Drückbänke) either by hand or with the aid of machines. Once the desired shape is achieved, they clean, sand, and polish the surfaces of the workpieces. For large-volume productions, they work on fully automated production lines.

Those who practice this profession are typically employed in metal spinning workshops and metal forming companies, as well as in metal arts and crafts businesses. Their work environments are primarily workshops and production halls, and they may also work in sales rooms when necessary. In Germany, this is a recognized "Ausbildungsberuf" (vocational training profession) structured as a "duale Ausbildung" (dual vocational training) in the craft sector. The training period is three years, during which students gain practical experience in a training company and acquire theoretical knowledge at a vocational school.
