Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit requires the individual to produce basic folded and to glued cartons and correctly shut down machinery when the job is completed.

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to produce basic folded and glued cartons.

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

Employability Skills

This unit contains employability skills.




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.

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Evidence of the following is essential:

produce a range of simple straight line folded and glued cartons on one of the following machines: a Royal 40, a Bobst Media or a Bobst Domino

demonstrate an ability to find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources

produce at least FOUR simple straight line folded and glued cartons of different sizes and weights according to manufacturer's and job specifications, enterprise procedures and the listed Performance Criteria

evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

assessment may take place on the job, off the job or a combination of these. Off the job assessment must be undertaken in a closely simulated workplace environment

for example a Royal 40, a Bobst Media or a Bobst Domino.

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate.

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

communication by checking and confirming all details required for the job against job specifications or production control system

problem solving by interpreting results from gathered information or evidence and making adjustments to equipment

planning and organising by preparing the job before setting up the sewing machine planning the job to meet the required timeframe

teamwork by maintaining the production process in association with others

use of technology by using carton folding and gluing machines

Required knowledge

OHS factors that must be considered when setting and/or operating machine delivery systems

areas of the sheet-fed feeder that should be monitored to ensure trouble-free operation

checked to be undertaken when substrate is removed from the machine

OHS factors that must be considered when using the folder/gluer machine

areas to continually observe to ensure the smooth trouble-free operation of the machine

adjusting the glue application

OHS factors that must be considered when adjusting/correcting the machine

causes of out-of-square folding and how each may be corrected

segments of quality assurance that would be inspected at the completion of the sample run

communication action that should be instigated if the job is out-of-square

communication action that should be instigated if ink is too wet for production

communication action that should be instigated if the job does not coincide with the sample

part(s) of the machine that should be adjusted if carton blanks are creasing

factors that cause poor glue adhesion on cartons

OHS factors that must be considered when cleaning the machine

important that tasks must be performed to correctly shut down the machine

preparing the finished work for dispatch

areas of the machine that need regular cleaning

materials that need to be cleaned from the machine

keeping the machine clear of surface rust (condensation)

quality aspects that should be considered in a completed folded job

altering production to meet client requirements

machine manuals and safety documentation that are relevant to this task and where they are kept and information that is included in these documents

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Machines may include:

a Royal 40, a Bobst Media, a Bobst Domino.

Product any include:

straight line folded and glued cartons of different sizes and weights.

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.
