PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. |
Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Review material behaviour |
1.1 Evaluation of material or product structure is conducted to identify options for production 1.2 Material handling options are chosen to ensure best performance of materials during production 1.3 Options are assessed to determine most effective/efficient method of production, ensuring highest quality and yield from materials 1.4 Test run confirms correct options, or the need for further adjustment or trialling to meet quality standards 1.5 Options and recommendations are documented for future reference according to enterprise procedures |
2. Tune and adjust machinery |
2.1 Idiosyncrasies of machines are reviewed and adjustments or tuning undertaken to compensate or exploit the idiosyncrasy, within the manufacturer’s specifications 2.2 Options are assessed to determine most effective/efficient method of production, ensuring highest quality and yield from machinery 2.3 Test run confirms correct options and settings, or the need for further adjustment or tuning to meet quality standards 2.4 Options and recommendations are documented for future reference according to enterprise procedures 2.5 Instruction is provided to machine operator or finisher on new practices, if required |
3. Troubleshoot machinery and material problems |
