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. Set up and adjust units

1.1 Job specifications are obtained and read, and tools and transfer segments are available for set up

1.2 Draw rollers and nip rollers and transfer segments are positioned correctly and pressures calibrated with timing set

1.3 Gears are changed and correctly set up

1.4 Knife assembly for guillotining and serration measurements are set, and accurate timing assigned

1.5 Pre-creaser blades are positioned in relation to one another and angular timing fixed

1.6 Centre grippers are correct in size, pressures and positioning

1.7 Vacuum holes are correctly positioned, and opening cylinder is set up and timed

1.8 Bottom forming guides and bottom paste unit are set up

1.9 Bottom closing and patch units are calibrated

1.10 Delivery chute and bag counter are prepared and ready

2. Set up in-line units

2.1 Correct perforation unit or perforation impression roller is set up

2.2 Pick-up rollers are installed and pressure and time are fixed

2.3 Tucking position, timing and depth are correctly set

2.4 Glue patch applicator or glue impression roller is set up according to job specifications

2.5 Press roller is positioned and pressured, and timing is programmed

2.6 Doctor blades and hot melt unit are set up

2.7 Timing between all units is checked for conformance with job specifications

2.8 Gears are changed according to job specifications

2.9 Settings and tensions of the raw material unwind and brake assembly are correct according to job specifications

3. Check availability of materials

3.1 Cut tubes are available and stacked ready

3.2 Adhesives are appropriate for the substrate, application process and machine

3.3 Correct procedures for control of materials are followed

4. Check set up

4.1 Work area is safe and ready for production according to safety requirements

4.2 All details required for the job are checked again and confirmed against job specifications

4.3 Settings are checked against specifications before production is commenced

4.4 Machine is stepped to ensure scores and folds are in correct position, and paper tension is corrected/adjusted

Evidence of the ability to:

correctly set up in-line bottom making machines for the manufacture of sacks or bags in accordance with job specifications, performance criteria, and 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:

list common faults associated with folder gluer machines, the causes, and methods to correct them

explain correct set-up procedures to meet work health and safety and enterprise requirements

explain the procedure for blade setup.

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 scoring, folding, and gluing machinery used in the manufacture of sacks and bags.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
