Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to work under laboratory conditions, perform calibration of equipment and write reports on the results. It applies to the use of a range of sophisticated equipment that provides independent feedback on quality processes and procedures.Calibration refers to those calibrations which are conducted to a specified standard using equipment available in the workplace/laboratory. It can include the testing of known standard samples.This unit would be taken in conjunction with appropriate technical units.Where 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: BUnit Weight: 8 | ||
