Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Observe safety precautions
  • Correct safety procedures are observed and protective clothing and safety glasses are worn.
       
Element: Determine job requirements
  • Drawings are interpreted, sequence of operations is determined and tools are selected to produce component to specification using International Standard Organisation or standard operating procedures.
  • Cutting parameters are determined.
       
Element: Perform boring operations
  • Horizontal and vertical boring operations are carried out including parallel line and taper boring, facing, turning, drilling and reaming to drawing specifications.
       
Element: Check component for conformance to specification
  • Components are checked for conformance to specification using appropriate techniques, tools and equipment.
       


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

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to perform machining operations using horizontal and/or vertical boring machines. Competency in this unit cannot be claimed until all prerequisites have been satisfied.

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

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently perform all elements of the unit as specified by the criteria, including required knowledge, and be capable of applying the competency in new and different situations and contexts.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the job. Where assessment occurs off the job, that is the candidate is not in productive work, then an appropriate simulation must be used where the range of conditions reflects realistic workplace situations. The competencies covered by this unit would be demonstrated by an individual working alone or as part of a team. The assessment environment should not disadvantage the candidate.

This unit could be assessed in conjunction with any other units addressing the safety, quality, communication, materials handling, recording and reporting associated with the performance of machining operations using horizontal and/or vertical boring machines or other units requiring the exercise of the skills and knowledge covered by this unit.

Method of assessment

Assessors should gather a range of evidence that is valid, sufficient, current and authentic. Evidence can be gathered through a variety of ways including direct observation, supervisor's reports, project work, samples and questioning. Questioning techniques should not require language, literacy and numeracy skills beyond those required in this unit of competency. The candidate must have access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required. The candidate must be permitted to refer to any relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications, codes, standards, manuals and reference materials.

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

Look for evidence that confirms skills in:

reading, interpreting and following information on written job instructions, specifications, quality and standard operating procedures, charts, lists, drawings and other applicable reference documents

planning and sequencing operations

checking and clarifying task-related information

preparing an operational work plan

selecting, mounting and positioning cutting tools

calculating and selecting cutting parameters, including speeds and feeds

performing horizontal and/or vertical boring operations

Required knowledge

Look for evidence that confirms knowledge of:

reasons for selecting the chosen sequence of operations

geometry for cutting tools for a range of materials

calculations for determining cutting parameters and checking tolerances within the scope of this unit

consequences of varying the speeds and feeds from the optimum rates

procedures and techniques for carrying out horizontal and vertical boring operations

appropriate techniques, tools and equipment to measure components

hazards and control measures associated with horizontal and/or vertical boring, including housekeeping

use and application of personal protective equipment

safe work practices and procedures

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.

Horizontal boring machines

Table type, floor type

Vertical boring machines

Double column, single column

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.
