2.2 Develop macros to suit production outcomes.
|
|
3. Create 2D drawings
|
3.1 Create drawings using full capability of available software system
3.2 Link drawing entities to database attributes to suit production outcomes.
3.3 Create detailed views using various scales.
3.4 Save files in various formats in line with organisational procedures.
3.5 Format linked drawing entities as materials lists in line with production requirements.
3.6 Extract supplementary product dimension data from drawings.
3.7 Record and report drawing process and equipment faults to appropriate personnel.

Foundation Skills
|
This section describes those core and employment skills that are essential to performance and are not explicit in the performance criteria.
|
|
Numeracy skills to:
|

Performance Evidence
A person demonstrating competency in this unit must satisfy all of the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit. If a specific volume or frequency is not stated below, then evidence must be provided that the following requirements have been performed on at least one occasion:
- follow organisational policies and procedures relevant to creating drawings using CAD systems
- create drawings using CAD systems in line with site requirements
- produce linked materials lists
- across the above jobs, produce these different types of drawings using CAD systems:
- plans
- diagrams
- charts
- elevations
- exploded views
- incorporate these drawing entities:
- lines
- arcs
- circles
- text
- hatch
- dimensions
- complete a basic report on drawing processes and equipment faults.
Knowledge Evidence
A person competent in this unit must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:
- common products for which computer aided 2D drawings are produced, their features, use and standard material sizes
- for the drawing software:
- available 2D drawing types
- system functions and capabilities
- methods to:
- set up system variables, menus and macros
- prepare 2D drawings
- prepare and explode detailed views
- link drawing entities to materials lists
- extract supplementary product dimension data from drawings
- store and retrieve drawings and materials lists
- formats for and inclusions of materials lists
- organisational policies and procedures for producing drawings and documents using computers.
Assessment Conditions
The following resources must be made available:
- computers, keyboards and industry current software programs used to produce computer aided 2D drawings and material lists
- product information on which to base drawings
- template materials lists
- template documents for recording drawing processes and equipment faults
- organisational policies and procedures for producing drawings and documents using computers.
Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.
Assessor requirements
Assessors must:
- hold the appropriate assessor competency standards as outlined in regulations; and
- be able to demonstrate vocational competencies at least to the level being assessed; and
- be able to demonstrate how they are continuing to develop their VET knowledge and skills as well as maintaining their industry currency and assessor competence.
