Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENT 

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Set up and adjust units

1.1 All details required for the job are checked and confirmed against job specifications

1.2 Correct materials are checked and available for the job

1.3 Adhesives appropriate for the substrate, application process and machine are selected

1.4 Work area is made safe and ready for production according to safety requirements

1.5 Folding guides and pressing plates are set to required dimensions for the job

1.6 Feeder, folding part, gluer, stacker, belts, vacuums and glue applicators are clean, clear and ready for use

1.7 Settings are checked against job specifications before production commences

2. Monitor throughput

2.1 Machine is run at speed required to produce a quality product

2.2 Machine is jogged to ensure folds and glue are in correct position

2.3 Guide positions are monitored to ensure adhesive is applied evenly and in correct position

2.4 Paper moisture is monitored and correct moisture levels are maintained

2.5 Blank spacing is controlled and product spacing and flow are maintained for efficient operation

2.6 Folds are correctly placed and the product stacks correctly

2.7 Glues dry at correct rates for the substrate

3. Confirm quality of output

3.1 A sample from the machine is selected and checked to ensure it conforms to required quality standards

3.2 Adjustments are made when standards are not met

3.3 Each process is monitored and minor adjustments are made during production, if required

3.4 Samples are continuously monitored for defects, and defects are removed

3.5 Efficiency, quality and output rate of production run are monitored for problems, and any deficiencies resolved

3.6 Wastage is monitored, kept to a minimum and correctly disposed of according to enterprise quality standards

3.7 Locations of all emergency shutdown buttons and triggers are known

Foundation Skills

This section describes language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills incorporated in the performance criteria that are required for competent performance.

Release 

Comments 

Release 1

This version first released with ICP Printing and Graphic Arts Training Package Version 1.0.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

  • correctly set up and operate a folder gluer machine according to job specifications, performance criteria, and within the production timeframe with minimum downtime or wastage.

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

Knowledge Evidence

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

  • list common faults associated with folder gluer machines, the causes, and corrective measures
  • describe correct procedures for set-up according to health and safety and workplace requirements
  • explain types of adhesive used and why they are chosen.

Assessment Conditions

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 a folder gluer machine and other special purpose tools, equipment and materials.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
