Unit of Competency | LMTCL2004B - Sew components |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit covers the skills and knowledge to align and sew components using a minimum of two machines and operation techniques. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | The unit applies to sewing work using a minimum of two machines which may include a plain lockstitch sewing machine, a three, four or five thread overlocker, a blind hemming machine or a zigzag sewing machine.Sewing techniques include those where the positioning, feeding and handling of work pieces involves discretionary changes, contouring or critical stopping points; or involving special handling skills to accommodate fabric variations.Work is conducted according to defined procedures.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities.The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:requirements prescribed by legislation, awards, agreements and conditions of employmentstandard operating procedureswork instructionsoral, written and visual communicationquality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section outputhousekeepingtasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control, and recyclingThis unit requires the application of skills associated with planning and organising to prepare components and machine for sewing. Problem solving skills are required to ensure work conforms to requirements and identify any production problems. Communication skills are used to refer to and complete required documentation. Self management skills are used to ensure safe use of technology and conformance of own work to quality standards. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. |

Evidence Required
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.
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package. | |
Critical aspects of evidence | Demonstrates skills and knowledge to: check work against ticket information prepare workstation and work before commencing sewing operations apply sewing techniques over a minimum of two operations operate at least two types of machine for operations where the positioning, feeding and handling of work pieces involves discretionary changes, contouring or critical stopping points or involving special handling skills required to accommodate fabric variations apply workplace OHS practices in work operations maintain accurate records |
Consistency in performance | Consistently applies skills and knowledge when: organising work completing tasks according to instructions working systematically with attention to detail identifying improvements and avoiding damage using workplace practices using OHS practices recording and reporting accidents and incidents assessing operational readiness of equipment recognising and adapting to cultural differences in the workplace, including modes of behaviour and interactions |
Resource implications | Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices. |
Context for assessment | Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment. |
Interdependent assessment | This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units. |

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 describes the essential skills and knowledge and their level, required for this unit. |
Demonstrates knowledge of: characteristics of woven and knitted fabrics such as denim, single knits, tricot, gabardine quality standards and practices Sequence of operations OHS practices, including hazard identification and control measures workplace practices recording and reporting practices |
Demonstrates skills to: consistently achieve quality and production output requirements use and maintain three, four and five thread overlocker, zigzag, blind hemming and plain lockstitch sewing machines read, interpret and follow information on work specifications, standard operating procedures and work instructions, and other reference material maintain accurate records communicate within the workplace sequence operations meet specifications clarify and check task-related information carry out work according to OHS practices |
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the Performance Criteria, is detailed below. Add any essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment depending on the work situation, needs if the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts. | |
Legislative/regulatory requirements | All work must comply with relevant Federal and State or Territory legislative or regulatory requirements. |
Checked includes: | checking that the bundle matches ticket information checking that previous operations have been successfully completed |
Components may include: | sleeves waistbands - straight or shaped collars cuffs plackets facings - neck, armhole binds zips - dress, skirt, trouser, invisible buttons and buttonholes pockets - cut away, patch, in seam |
OHS practices | OHS practices include hazard identification and control, risk assessment and implementation of risk reduction measures specific to the tasks described by this unit, and may relate to: manual handling techniques standard operating procedures personal protective equipment safe materials handling taking of rest breaks ergonomic arrangement of workplaces following marked walkways safe storage of equipment housekeeping reporting accidents and incidents environmental practices |
Machines may include | plain lockstitch sewing machine three, four or five thread overlocker zigzag sewing machine blind hemming machines |
Set-up includes | correct thread, needle size and type, needle guard, tension setting and attachments |
Needles may include | a variety of size and types such standard, ball point |
Operations may include | sewing techniques where the positioning, feeding and handling of work pieces involves discretionary changes, contouring or critical stopping points or involving the special handling skills required to accommodate fabric variations gathering, easing, tucking, stitching curves hems - double fold, rolled, blind, stitched hem darts and pleats |
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.
