As a Plate Roller, you play a crucial role in rolling and welding 8 to 11-meter plates with thicknesses of 110 mm to form cylindrical shells. You contribute to the serial and custom production, where each workpiece has unique dimensions.

There is no other place in the Netherlands where you work with such large materials and precision, and our client, provides the opportunity for you to learn. Their massive steel monopile tubes for offshore wind parks withstand all weather conditions, thanks in part to your meticulous work.
