4. Identify and rectify problems | 4.1 Problems in folding and gluing machine operation are identified and reported according to enterprise requirements 4.2 Adjustments or corrections are carried out according to specified procedures and consistent with operator’s skill level 4.3 Complex folding/gluing machine operation is checked to ensure correct operation |
5. Conduct shutdown of production process | 5.1 Correct shutdown sequence is followed according to manufacturer’s specifications and enterprise procedures 5.2 Shutdown is conducted in association with fellow workers and in compliance with WHS requirements 5.3 Waste is removed from operating area and recycled or disposed of, where required, according to regulatory requirements and enterprise procedures 5.4 Machine faults requiring repair are identified and reported to designated person, according to enterprise procedures 5.5 Repair/adjustment is verified prior to resumption of operations |
6. Clean folding/gluing machine at end of run | 6.1 Folding unit is cleaned ready for next run 6.2 Gluing unit is disengaged and cleaned ready for next run 6.3 Transport and delivery systems are cleaned ready for next run 6.4 Production records or other documentation are accurately completed where required by enterprise procedures |
Evidence of the ability to:
complete THREE crashlock, six-corner and specialty work carton jobs, with different sizes and weights of carton board, using multiple gluing units, according to manufacturer’s and job specifications and enterprise procedures on either a Royal 40, a Bobst Media or Bobst Domino.
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:
explain work health and safety factors for:
setting and/or operating folder/gluer transport and delivery systems
adjusting/correcting the machine
cleaning the machine
identify areas of the feeder to monitor to ensure trouble-free operation
identify parts of the pick-up system to adjust to ensure accurate and continuous feeding
explain which areas of the delivery system to observe to prevent damage to the finished product
describe areas to observe continually to ensure smooth, trouble-free operation of the machine
explain areas of the gluing unit to monitor continuously
list causes of incorrect folding, and explain how each can be corrected
identify segments of quality assurance inspected at sample run completion
describe action to take if adhesive viscosity in gluing unit is too low/high
explain how application of glue is adjusted
identify areas of the machine to adjust if:
sheets are not neatly entering delivery
carton blanks are creasing
carton blanks are not entering the machine
explain checks to correctly shut down the machine
describe checks to make when preparing finished work for dispatch
identify areas of the machine to clean regularly, and materials to clean from the machine
explain how to keep the machine clear of surface rust (condensation)
identify recommended cleaning agents
identify production records to keep or write-up, and information to include
explain quality aspects to consider in a completed folded carton
list steps to ensure important features of the production control system are followed
explain how production needs to be altered to meet client requirements
list items to check against the client sample
identify machine manuals, safety and other documentation relevant to this task, where they are kept, and the information included in them.
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 and use of special purpose tools, equipment and materials used to produce folded and glued cartons.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
