Assessment Requirements for MEM18055 Dismantle, replace and assemble engineering components

Modification History

Release 1. Supersedes and is equivalent to MEM18055B Dismantle, replace and assemble engineering components

Performance Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria on at least two (2) occasions and include:

following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices

identifying and interpreting specifications, charts, lists, drawings and other applicable reference documents to dismantle, replace and assemble engineering components

dismantling components using appropriate techniques, tools and equipment and marking component parts for reassembly purposes

checking component parts visually and dimensionally for compliance to specification and marking faulty parts for repair, replacement or adjustment

selecting replacement parts using manufacturers’ catalogues and data

assembling components using appropriate techniques and principles

inspecting final assembly for compliance to specifications

returning the final assembly to service in accordance with SOPs.

Knowledge Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate the required knowledge for this unit must be relevant to and satisfy the requirements of the elements and performance criteria and include knowledge of:

safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)

tasks to be performed in accordance with SOPs

tools and equipment associated with dismantling the components

procedures for:

checking components for conformance to specification and equipment required

assembling components and requirements of the assembly in terms of specifications, operational performance, quality and safety

lubricating the assembly

returning components/assemblies into use and checks to be undertaken during inspection of the final assembly

specifications of the components to be replaced, including features and/or dimensions

process of identifying replacement parts from catalogues

packing and sealing materials.

Assessment Conditions

Assessors must:

have vocational competency in dismantling, replacing and assembling engineering components at least to the level being assessed with relevant industry knowledge and experience

satisfy the assessor requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015 or its replacement and comply with the National Vocational Education and Training Regulator Act 2011, its replacement or equivalent legislation covering VET regulation in a non-referring state/territory as the case requires

Where possible assessment must occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment that reflects realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills

Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.
