Fabricate shopfitting components using CNC machines

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to fabricate components for shopfitting units using computer numerically-controlled (CNC) machinery. It covers interpreting specifications for components, programming and testing the CNC machine, and producing and marking components for assembly. The components include cabinets, benches, counters, showcases, wall units and work stations.

The unit supports shopfitters working as part of a team to fabricate a range of shopfitting units for transportation to different installation work sites. It applies to off-site shopfitting work conducted in manufacturing premises or workshops.

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

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