Required Skills

Required skills

OHS in relation to setting up and operating electronic monitoring systems communication skills when ensuring the product quality meets the required quality standard planning and organising when following the correct sequence to shut down the machine teamwork when maintaining the production process in association with other staff using technology when monitoring and adjusting equipment for production purposes and adjusting pressures and registration problem solving by identifying problems and faults and developing solutions

Required knowledge

OHS factors that must be considered when setting up andor operating machine delivery systems areas of the feeder should be monitored to ensure troublefree operation OHS factors that must be considered when using the window facer machine areas to continuously observe to ensure the smooth troublefree operation of the machine areas of the gluing and film cutting process that should be monitored to assure the quality of the product adjustment of the glue application OHS factors that must be considered when adjustingcorrecting the machine segments of quality assurance that would be inspected at the completion of the sample run communication action that should be instigated if job does not coincide with sample parts of the machine that should be adjusted if window film is cutslit incorrectly factors that cause poor glue adhesion on cartons OHS factors that must be considered as a job is completed important tasks that must be performed to correctly shut down the machine ways in which the finished work is prepared for the next process areas of the machine that need regular cleaning materials that need to be cleaned from the machine quality aspects that should be considered in a completed job alterations to production to meet client requirements

Evidence Required

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 different size jobs on the window gluer according to job specifications and within the production timeframe produce a range of different size jobs on the window gluer including and cycle operate and dual feed 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
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 onthejob performance by the candidate
Guidance information for assessment	Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector workplace and job role is recommended

Range Statement

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.
Fastening processes may include:	spot and line gluing.
Fastening units may include:	a range of machines with manual, semi-automated, fully automated or computerised process control.
In-line processes may include:	minor processes that are integral to this competency can include basic in-line operations such as perforating, numbering, slitting that do not in themselves constitute another defined unit of competency. Where a major in-line process is defined as a separate competency (eg flat-bed cutting, folding) it should be assessed as such.
