Unit of Competency LMTTD6002A - Apply electronic systems to textile design and production
Description This unit covers the skills and knowledge to apply electronic systems to textile design and production processes.
Employability Skills This unit contains employability skills.
Learning Outcomes and Application The unit applies to the development of intricate textile designs with multiple features using computer based design programs that enable technically accurate reproduction of the design. Design specifications and patterns will be calculated using appropriate software. The design brief may be provided by a client or be of own determination. The application of this unit is according to OHS practices of the enterprise and workplace practices, which may include:requirements prescribed by legislation, awards, agreements and conditions of employmentstandard operating procedureswork instructionsoral, written and visual communicationquality practices, including responsibility for maintenance of own work quality and contribution to quality improvement of team or section outputhousekeepingtasks related to environmental protection, waste disposal, pollution control and recyclingThis unit requires the application of skills associated with communication when interpreting design brief, researching and applying design specifications, organising information and presenting design. Problem solving, planning and organising, and initiative and enterprise are applied throughout the design development process. Technology skills are necessary for using computer aided design systems and associated equipment.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Interpret textile design brief
  • Design brief is interpreted to determine design criteria
  • Trends, themes and influences in textile design are researched and evaluated in line with brief
  • Complexity of design is evaluated in terms of intricacy and range of features
  • Workstation is set up according to OHS practices, and preliminary design concept images are created using relevant electronic system
       
Element: Develop design concept using computer aided design system
  • Scale and dimensional aspects of design are produced and adjustments made in line with design brief
  • Design features are accurately incorporated into image using relevant software tools
  • Colour palettes are developed and colour and tone effects are explored
  • Colour palettes are selected and saved and computer screen and printer calibrated accordingly
  • Texture and pattern effects are developed
  • Other media is accessed electronically via internet or other networks and used in the creation of design concept
  • Design concept features are integrated and design image is saved
       
Element: Present and confirm design
  • Design image output is produced that accurately documents intricate design features, scale and dimension and incorporates design elements
  • Storyboards are produced and presented using computer aided design processes
  • Design is presented to client or appropriate personnel for review and modifications are made
       
Element: Determine design specifications and machine settings
  • Yarn and material requirements for design draft are calculated using computer aided design system
  • Specifications are confirmed in line with textile design requirements and saved
  • Patterns are produced
  • Machine settings are calculated and calibrated with direct interface to textile production machinery where appropriate
       
Element: Finalise design
  • Design and specifications are confirmed with client or production personnel and modifications saved where necessary
  • Production plans and specifications are finalised and saved
  • Final design and specifications are saved as hard copy and incorporated into digital folio
       


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, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Resource implications

Access is required to real or appropriately simulated situations, including work areas, materials and equipment, and to information on workplace practices and OHS practices.

Context for assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in an appropriately simulated environment.

Interdependent assessment

This unit may be assessed independently or in combination with other relevant units.

Submission Requirements
