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.
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Monitor production process | 1.1 All details required for the job are checked and confirmed against job specifications 1.2 Supply of materials throughout the run is maintained 1.3 Paper tension is monitored on an ongoing basis 1.4 Machine is run at optimum speed for maintaining quality outputs |
2. Maintain quality | 2.1 Location of all emergency shutdown buttons and triggers are known 2.2 Sample from the machine is selected and checked to ensure it matches the required standards 2.3 Adjustments are made when standards are not met 2.4 Each in-line process is monitored and minor adjustments are made during production, if required 2.5 Samples are continuously monitored for defects, and defects are removed 2.6 Efficiency, quality and output rate of the production run are monitored for problems, and any deficiencies resolved 2.7 Wastage is monitored, kept to a minimum and correctly disposed of according to enterprise quality standards |
3. Identify problems | 3.1 Faults which affect quality of the sacks or bags are identified and rectified 3.2 Problems that reduce the output rate are identified and fixed 3.3 Faults that affect efficient operation of equipment are identified and resolved |
Evidence of the ability to:
demonstrate all safety devices on the machine
maintain throughput of sack or bag machines consistently over a period of time, according to job specifications and unit requirements.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
list common faults associated with sack or bag manufacturing machines, the causes and how to correct them
identify locations of all emergency shutdown buttons and triggers
identify quality standards for jobs.
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the converting, binding and finishing field of work and include access to a sack or bag machine, relevant facilities, special purpose tools, equipment and materials.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
