The Millwright trade began in the eighteenth century during the Industrial Revolution. A Millwright installs, maintains, diagnoses and repairs the machines that keep America's industries running. Machines such as compressors, pumps, conveyers, monorails, gas and steam turbines and all types of manufacturing equipment are installed and maintained by Millwrights. Whether it's a pharmaceutical company, a nuclear plant, a refinery or a brewery, you'll find plenty of them right here in New Jersey that depend on Millwrights to keep their factories running smoothly.
Millwrights work with rigging and hoisting equipment, torches and welders to cut and fabricate steel, lasers, optical transits and precision measuring tools to place and calibrate machinery. They must be versatile workers because at any time they could be called on to be a machinist, mechanic, carpenter, cement mason or welder. If you're looking for a fascinating job that demands unique mechanical skills, a Millwright apprenticeship is the right career choice for you.
