List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Obtain job instuctions and locate forme | 1.1 Job sheets or instructions are interpreted correctly 1.2 Existing formes are located in storage area using filing system and new formes and associated tooling are collected from holding location |
2. Check cutting forme | 2.1 Cutting forme/tooling is checked against master sample for accuracy of cut and fold 2.2 Centre line is located and checked to ensure accuracy of positioning/registration on Bobst |
3. Position and set up counters | 3.1 Cutting plate is located and prepared for counters 3.2 Counters are accurately positioned and set up on cutting plate to ensure registration with cutting forme |
4. Conduct sample cut | 4.1 Material to be used for sample cut is obtained 4.2 Cutting forme and cutting plate are accurately positioned on machine 4.3 Machine is operated to produce sample according to enterprise procedures |
5. Check sample | 5.1 Sample is accurately cut and registration of tooling is precise 5.2 Forme or tooling is adjusted if necessary, according to job specifications 5.3 Sample is confirmed as correct by supervisor if required |
6. Set up stripping forme and blank separator | 6.1 Pins are positioned on stripping forme to ensure accurate removal of waste board 6.2 Blank separator is set up according to job specifications |
7. Undertake filing procedure | 7.1 Correct identification number is allocated to cutting formes/tooling and strippers, and recorded 7.2 Information is correctly entered into filing system according to enterprise procedures |
Evidence of the ability to:
prepare FOUR cutting formes (two large and two small) to accommodate TWO different complexities of cutting (at least one must contain multiple images with extremely tight registration and highly accurate cutting requirements)
demonstrate accurate attachment of stripper materials
evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
list checks required to correctly position bridge holes
explain how to reinforce bridge holes
list checks to perform to ensure saw cuts accurately match line drawings
list checks when cutting and shaping the knives and creasers
identify work health and safety factors for setting knives
identify factors that determine the amount and positioning of rubber attached to the forme
determine important items to consider when setting knives and creasers into position on the forme blank
list checks for attaching stripping materials to stripper backing materials
explain the purpose of mounting strips
identify areas to proof to ensure cutting forme meets production order specifications
explain allocation of numbers to each forme
determine the method of recording forme allocation numbers that is the accepted formula.
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the converting, binding and finishing field of work and include access to relevant facilities, equipment and materials.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
