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. Calibrate and adjust settings | 1.1 All details required for the job are checked and confirmed against job specifications 1.2 Correct materials are checked and available for the job 1.3 Adhesives are selected that are appropriate for the substrate, application process and machine 1.4 Work area is made safe and prepared for production according to safety requirements 1.5 Window cutting and patch unit settings are set according to job specifications 1.6 Measurement settings are checked thoroughly against job specifications before production is commenced 1.7 Window position and size are set to meet requirements to ensure the machine runs efficiently and safely 1.8 Wastage is monitored, kept to a minimum and correctly disposed of according to enterprise quality standards 1.9 Process is monitored to maintain quality and identify opportunities for improvement |
2. Confirm quality | 2.1 A sample is produced and checked for conformance with quality standards, and adjustments made if required 2.2 Efficiency, quality and output rate of production run are monitored for problems, and any deficiencies resolved 2.3 Any machine faults are reported to appropriate responsible person 2.4 Locations of all emergency shutdown buttons and triggers are known |
Evidence of the ability to:
set up window cutting and patching units and produce a clean window cut with correct gum position, even level patch size and position, according to job specifications, enterprise procedures and performance criteria, and within the production timeframe
demonstrate all safety devices on the machine.
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:
describe correct procedures for set-up according to health and safety and workplace requirements
explain factors that determine selection of materials and adhesives
explain enterprise procedures for quality standards, reporting faults and emergencies
identify principles of envelope manufacture and setting window cutting and patching units
list common faults associated with window cutting and patching.
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 relevant facilities and envelope manufacturing equipment with window cutting and patching units.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
