Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

correctly set up equipment and produce TWO basic hand-fastened products of different thickness and spine length to demonstrate equipment adjustment, according to manufacturer’s and job specifications, enterprise procedures and listed performance criteria.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

determine information concerning binding found in the job documentation or production control system

identify work health and safety (WHS) factors for:

setting up and operating the machinery

adjusting machinery

determine circumstances in which a machine needs to be adjusted

identify the correct binding technique for a job

determine parts of the wire stitcher toe adjust to process books of different thicknesses

explain positioning of the wire stitches on the book

explain difference between a staple and a wire stitch

determine the appropriate wire calliper for a particular job

explain the care to ensure a neat and clean adhesive binding job

describe sewing stages positioning on the book

explain ‘kettle stitch’

identify common sewing problems likely to be met when sewing a multi-section book

explain the purpose of sewing frames

explain how to ensure hand sewing remains firmly together

list problems associated with:

oiling a wire stitcher

not properly cleaning and maintaining equipment

identify measures to prevent production interruptions

describe an acceptable binding result

explain consequences if wire stitches are not in the right position

list what causes a book to be ‘stab’ stitched and special problems encountered with ‘stab’ stitching

determine when to use ‘saddle’ stitch or ‘flat’/’side’ stitch

identify manuals, safety and other documentation relevant to this task, where they are kept, and the information included in them.
