Release 1

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

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

  • safely reclaim THREE screens, preferably of different mesh and stencil types commonly used in the workplace, using manual techniques, according to manufacturer and job specifications, enterprise procedures and work health and safety (WHS) requirements.

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:

  • explain the significance of mesh count
  • explain how screens with different mesh counts should be treated
  • describe the common faults that could occur in meshes and frames
  • describe the ink removal procedures for three different inks
  • describe the stencil removal procedures for two stencil types
  • identify what chemicals are available for screen reclamation
  • explain the reasons for selecting chemicals and method for screen reclamation
  • explain the main considerations when handling and disposing of chemicals
  • explain the various screen reclamation techniques available in the industry
  • explain the reasons for selecting and applying a specific technique for screen reclamation
  • identify the hazards to be aware of in reclaiming screens
  • describe the enterprise policies on material handling
  • describe the enterprise policies on management of waste
  • name any personal protective clothing that should be worn when reclaiming screens
  • identify required manuals, safety and other documentation and briefly outline the relevant information in each source.

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 screen printing field of work and include access to relevant tools, equipment, materials, resources and documentation.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
