What an assessment for AURTTW003 must cover
27 assessable components: 4 elements (16 performance criteria), 1 performance evidence and 4 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 foundation skills. 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 Prepare to machine material
- 1.1Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions
- 1.2Machine and material information is sourced and interpreted
- 1.3Machining procedures and methods are analysed, and those most appropriate to the circumstances are selected
- 1.4Hazards associated with work are identified and risks managed
- 1.5Tools and equipment are selected and prepared for operation according to manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
2 Set up machinery prior to machining
- 2.1Components to be machined are positioned and clamped according to manufacturer specifications, workplace procedures and safety requirements
- 2.2Speed and feed that suit component materials are selected according to manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
- 2.3Machine and components are set up according to industry standards and manufacturer current specifications for methods, equipment used and tolerances relative to component
3 Machine components
- 3.1Components are machined according to workplace procedures and safety requirements, and following machinery safe operating procedures
- 3.2Component is measured for size and finish according to manufacturer specifications and workplace procedures
- 3.3Size and finish are compared with specifications
- 3.4Machining is completed to required specifications according to workplace procedures and safety requirements, and following machinery safe operating procedures
4 Complete work processes
- 4.1Final inspection is made to ensure work is to workplace expectations and component is presented ready for use
- 4.2Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected
- 4.3Tools and equipment are checked and stored according to workplace procedures
- 4.4Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures
Performance evidence
- carry out machining operations on both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, using two of the following machines: lathe, mill, surface grinder.
Knowledge evidence
- work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to carrying out machining operations, including operational risk assessment and treatments associated with: electrical safety of machinery, machinery movement and operation
- basic machining procedures, including: sharpening and shaping tools, identifying worn and damaged cutting tools, mounting and positioning cutting tools, setting machining parameters to achieve job requirements and maximise tool life, including speeds and feeds, types and application of coolants and lubricants, measuring to specified tolerances and dimensions
- procedures for machining using a lathe, mill and surface grinder, including: clamping and mounting work pieces, setting speeds and feeds, machining ferrous and non-ferrous materials
- requirements of Australian standards relevant to engine reconditioning, including: AS4182 Automotive repairs – Code of practice for reconditioning reciprocating spark ignition engines, AS4427 Automotive repairs – Code of practice for reconditioning reciprocating compression ignition engines.
Foundation skills
- Learning skills: locate appropriate sources of information efficiently.
- Reading skills: interpret machinery safe operating procedures from workshop literature and signs.
- Writing skills: legibly and accurately fill out workplace documentation when recording parts and material used.
- Numeracy skills: interpret numerical information in manufacturer specifications, workshop manuals, and machinery dials and gauges; convert metric dimensions to imperial, and imperial dimensions to metric; use basic mathematical operations, including addition and subtraction, to calculate distances, tolerances and deviations from manufacturer specifications.
- Planning and organising skills: select best tooling option for the work and sequence procedure to reduce time and material wastage.
- Technology skills: use precision measuring equipment, including inside and outside metric and imperial micrometers.

Questions about assessing AURTTW003
What does an assessment tool for AURTTW003 need to cover?
To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AURTTW003 needs to address all 27 unit components: 4 elements with 16 performance criteria, 1 performance evidence requirements, 4 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 AURTTW003?
Auditori pulls the current release of AURTTW003 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 AURTTW003 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.
Can I check my existing AURTTW003 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 AURTTW003, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
