ICPCBF301
Run and monitor in-line bottom making machine for sack or bag manufacture

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to operate and monitor an in-line bottom making machine for the manufacture of sacks or bags with minimum downtime.

This unit applies to skilled operators working in the sacks and bags area in the printing industry who may have to solve problems, provide leadership and guidance to others, and who have some limited responsibility for the output of others.

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

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


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.

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 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 of output

1.5 Machine is adjusted to maintain quality of output

2. Monitor production

2.1 Correct perforation alignment is maintained

2.2 Pick-up rollers are working correctly and pressure and timing are maintained

2.3 Glue patch applicator or glue impression roller remains clear and dispenses required amount of glue

2.4 Doctor blades and hot melt unit are operating correctly

2.5 Timing between all units is maintained or adjusted to avoid production problems

2.6 Overall production is monitored and adjustments made to avoid production problems and improve production speeds

3. Maintain quality

3.1 Correct procedures for removal of waste are followed according to enterprise procedures

3.2 Samples are continuously monitored for defects, and defects are removed

3.3 Efficiency, quality and output rate of production run are monitored for problems, and any deficiencies resolved

3.4 Locations of all emergency shutdown buttons and triggers are known

4. Identify problems and rectify

4.1 Faults which affect quality of the sacks or bags are identified and rectified

4.2 Problems that reduce rate of output are identified and fixed

4.3 Faults that affect efficient operation of equipment are identified and resolved

Evidence of the ability to:

correctly operate an in-line bottom making machine for the manufacture of sacks or bags according to job specifications and enterprise procedures

ability to anticipate, identify and rectify production problems with minimum downtime.

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:

identify common faults associated with setting up in-line scoring, folding and gluing machines, and how to correct them

explain procedures for quality assurance

explain enterprise documentation procedures including quality standards, production standards and faults procedures.

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 an in-line bottom-making machine for sack or bag manufacture.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

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.
