What an assessment for MEM07014 must cover

31 assessable components: 3 elements (11 performance criteria), 9 performance evidence and 11 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, drawings, job sheets or work instructions

2 Prepare to undertake work

  • 2.1Determine sequence of operations
  • 2.2Select correct electrode to ensure finished component conforms to drawing specifications
  • 2.3Calculate electrode surface area and set process parameters to give safe, accurate and efficient operation
  • 2.4Set up job relative to electrode to ensure required position is obtained

3 Perform EDM

  • 3.1Operate electro-discharge machine to produce components to drawing specifications
  • 3.2Check components for compliance with specifications
  • 3.3Rectify non-compliant product in accordance with SOPs

Performance evidence

  • following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
  • identifying and interpreting specifications, drawings and other applicable reference documents with respect to performing electro-discharge machining (EDM) operations
  • determining the coordinates of the work pieces relative to the machine datum
  • calculating machining parameters necessary in achieving the safe, accurate and efficient machining of the work piece
  • calculating the electrode surface area and selecting the correct electrodes for the job
  • setting up job using appropriate holding devices and accessories
  • performing EDM operations to produce components to specifications
  • checking components for conformance to specifications using precision measuring instruments
  • rectifying non-compliant product

Knowledge evidence

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • sequence of operations to achieve the EDM job requirements
  • electrode types and geometry required to achieve the specified outcome
  • effects of material to be machined on the electrode material and geometry
  • procedures for producing electrodes for the electro-discharge machining process
  • coordinates of the feature(s) to be machined
  • coordinates of the electrode relative to the machine datum
  • procedures for operating the electro-discharge machine to produce components
  • tools, techniques and equipment appropriate to the checking of machined components
  • tools, techniques and equipment for checking components for conformance to specifications and rectifying non-compliant components
  • reasons for selecting the tools, techniques and equipment to be used

Questions about assessing MEM07014

What does an assessment tool for MEM07014 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM07014 needs to address all 31 unit components: 3 elements with 11 performance criteria, 9 performance evidence requirements, 11 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 MEM07014?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM07014 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 MEM07014 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM07014 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 MEM07014, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
