Internship Mechanical Engineering

One of the strengths of Marel is the high level of standardization combined with the ability to meet unique customer needs.

The Poultry Solution Unit is currently making a transition to 3D for the design of standardized and flexible production lines.

To help our customers get to the right solution quickly, we are in the process of creating a library of 3D intelligent configurable building blocks.

Marel’s approach to configurable and scalable layout design is cutting edge. This provides you with the perfect opportunity to learn and build upon.

Your assignment will consist of gathering data from various sources and combining this into intelligent 3D CAD building blocks, aimed for configure-to-order system design.

To accomplish this, you will be using Autodesk Inventor Factory Design Utilities including iLogic.

Your building blocks will be used by 100+ engineers across the globe. Your effort will enable scalable and efficient 3D factory design, resulting in reliable high-quality solutions for our customers.

Who are we?

Marel is the leading global provider of advanced processing systems and services to the poultry, meat and fish industries. The strong research and development strategy of Marel is supported by an annual investment of 6 to 7% of revenue in innovation. Highly qualified researchers and technicians, a great working relationship with leaders in the food processing industry and a pioneering mind set contribute to our successful product development that has kept Marel at the forefront of the industry during the last decades.

The company Marel Poultry focuses on the development, production, installation and services of poultry processing equipment. In the strategic R&D program of Marel Poultry, further mechanization and automation of current food processing systems is an important subject, as the state-of-the-art technology is more and more limited due to increased processing speeds, in combination with data processing and logistic challenges.

What’s in it for you?

In general we have a dialogue with you to find out which assignment suits best. You may choose on what aspect you wish to focus on.

Any assignment starts with a project definition phase. Here you get the opportunity to take the lead on understanding the assignment, its goal and what to deliver at the end. This will help you develop your soft skills. In this process you also determine the focus of the assignment, based on what technical skills you wish to develop.
