Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to set up minor rotary cutting processes, including kiss cutting, perforating, sprocket hole punching, slotting, sheeting, slitting, creasing and scoring.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

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 special purpose tools, equipment and materials.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

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.
