What an assessment for MEM06016 must cover

33 assessable components: 4 elements (12 performance criteria), 11 performance evidence and 10 knowledge evidence requirements. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Determine job requirements

  • 1.1Follow standard operating procedures (SOPs)
  • 1.2Comply with work health and safety (WHS) requirements at all times
  • 1.3Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with SOPs
  • 1.4Identify job requirements from specifications, sketches, job sheets or work instructions

2 Select material

  • 2.1Select material to meet job requirements that is appropriate for the specific open dies to be used
  • 2.2Calculate material volumes and weights, including provision for thermal expansion/contraction, oxidization, and shrinkage

3 Use forging press and open dies

  • 3.1Select open dies that are appropriate for the material and forging techniques to be used and determine whether they are safe and fit for purpose
  • 3.2Set up and operate forging press, dies and heating equipment

4 Apply press forging techniques

  • 4.1Select and use press forging techniques to meet job requirements
  • 4.2Recognise defects and take appropriate action for rectification
  • 4.3Apply safe techniques, including balancing and pivoting, for handling forging stock
  • 4.4Apply heating processes appropriate to materials and job requirements

Performance evidence

  • follow work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
  • calculate material requirements for press forging allowing for oxidisation and wastage
  • select and use open dies
  • store, protect, and maintain dies
  • inspect dies using crack detection methods
  • select and set up dies for specific purposes
  • operate heating equipment to heat metal to forging temperature
  • safely handle hot metal
  • set up and operate forging press
  • use press forging techniques to forge material to meet job requirements
  • detect forging defects and their causes and rectify forging techniques in response

Knowledge evidence

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • set-up and operation of forging press
  • press forging techniques
  • set-up of dies
  • storage, protection, and maintenance of dies
  • determining whether dies are fit for purpose
  • safe techniques for handling hot metal
  • oxidisation/shrinkage allowances for forging material
  • calculations and formulas for determining the volume and weight of material
  • forging material specifications

Questions about assessing MEM06016

What does an assessment tool for MEM06016 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM06016 needs to address all 33 unit components: 4 elements with 12 performance criteria, 11 performance evidence requirements, 10 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for MEM06016?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM06016 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for MEM06016 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM06016 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of MEM06016, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
