Elements and Performance Criteria
- Lay out model
- Select appropriate material to meet specifications
- Develop and plan finished model design with reference to customer's specifications (written or verbal) for finish, quality and form, using applicable processes
- Calculate contractions allowances, clearances and tapers to establish model parameters
- Design and manufacture datum boards, jigs and fixtures as required
- Manufacture model
- Determine sequence of manufacture, including build-up on datum board, and establishing datum's mark out of model and areas to be NC/CNC machined
- Select and use appropriate machines and machining processes to shape/produce model to specifications
- Select and use a range of hand and hand held power tools to fashion and manufacture model to fine tolerances according to specifications, ensuring that surface finish is appropriate to the type of model
- Undertake appropriate measurement/calculations to check specifications, including coordinate measuring and machine checking as required
- Record and report all deviations or modifications to original tooling design, prints or plans, consistent with procedures
- Determine job requirements
- Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times
- Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs
