Elements and Performance Criteria

  1. Prepare for job
  2. Mount rotary cutting devices to cylinders
  3. Set up delivery systems
  4. Set up machine
  5. Assist in set-up for other in-line processes
  6. Conduct sample run

Range Statement

This section specifies different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Delivery systems MUST include EITHER:

reel systems

OR

sheet systems.

Setting up and adjusting MUST include EITHER:

unwind and rewind reels

web control system

splicing/joining reels

folder and sheeter

OR

feeder and delivery systems

sheet pick-up and delivery systems

transfer systems.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

demonstrate all safety devices on the machinery

demonstrate any THREE cutting processes, including relevant minor in-line processes, and for each process:

correctly set up machinery for basic flat-bed cutting for TWO jobs, and

change the type and size of substrates and design of finished patterns according to manufacturer’s and job specifications, enterprise procedures and listed performance criteria.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

identify work health and safety factors for:

setting up and/or operating machine delivery systems

setting up cutting devices

determine important areas pertinent to the relevant system:

to check when the feeder unit is set up

of the reel delivery system that may need to be adjusted according to job specifications

to consider during webbing procedures

identify checks needed when:

cutting devices are mounted on a cylinder

cutting devices are attached to the machine

substrate is removed from the machine

explain the rotary hole punching/indexing/creasing information found in the job documentation or production control system

identify adjustments to the delivery systems that may be needed to suit various jobs

list steps to ensure the delivery systems operate effectively

explain ways the finished product can be secured for dispatch

explain how machine pressure, machine cutting depths and the need to adjust in-line units are determined

determine details of the completed sample to examine to ensure conformance to client requirements

explain methods for storing cutting tools and equipment to prevent damage and deterioration

identify machine manuals, safety and other documentation relevant to this task, where they are kept, and the information included in them.
