Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to set and operate a range of coordinate measuring machines (CMM).Appropriate levels of measurement, computer operations and drawing skills should be selected with this unit. Where interpretation of technical drawings is required unit MEM09002 Interpret technical drawing should also be selected.Where a selection and use of tools is required unit MEM18001 Use hand tools should also be selected. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.Band: AUnit Weight: 2
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

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.

This field allows for 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.

CMMs include one (1) or more of the following:

manual machines

machines fitted with microprocessors

horizontal vertical and gantry tie machines

Probes include one (1) or more of the following:

solid trigger probes

electronic trigger probes

Measure components include the following:

those which can be measured directly and those that require measurements to be constructed mathematically

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.
