This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to use hammer and power hammer tools and formers, apply hammer forging techniques and operate heating devices.

Equipment used does not include drop and upset machinery, vacuum furnaces or rolling and extruding mill machinery.

Where the interpretation of technical drawings is required unit MEM09002 Interpret technical drawing should also be selected.

Where the selection and use of engineering measurement is required unit MEM12023 Perform engineering measurements should also be selected.

Where the selection and use of tools is required unit MEM18001 Use hand tools and unit MEM18002 Use power tools/hand held operations, should also be selected as appropriate.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Band: A

Unit Weight: 4

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.
Materials include one (1) or more of the following:	low/high carbon steels alloys stainless steel lead
Material calculations include one (1) or more of the following:	thermal expansion/contraction material wastage
Hammer tools and formers include one (1) or more of the following:	flatters set hammers hot/cold sets ball peen hammer swages
Defects include one (1) or more of the following:	galls fins shrinkage oxidisation
Heating process includes one (1) or more of the following:	diesel electric and gas furnaces coke fires gaseous oxygen/fuel equipment

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
