CPCSHP3001 — Fabricate shopfitting components using CNC machines

1 Plan and prepare to use CNC machines.

• 1.1Identify, read and interpret details of shopfitting components from job requirements, plans and specifications.
• 1.2Produce a full size set out of all shopfitting components and detail fabrication method, joint type, grain direction, and drawer and door clearance.
• 1.3Calculate material quantities for fabrication of shopfitting components from dimensions on plans.
• 1.4Develop an efficient cutting list to minimise waste.
• 1.5Determine job priorities and sequence job tasks in consultation with others in the workplace.
• 1.6Identify workplace hazards and conditions, assess risks and implement risk controls following work health and safety requirements and environmental practices.
• 1.7Select, fit and used personal protective equipment (PPE) required for the task.
• 1.8Obtain, safely handle and prepare materials appropriate to the work application and locate ready for use.
• 1.9Check serviceability of CNC machinery, and identify, report and rectify faults.

2 Prepare CNC program.

• 2.1Select appropriate CNC machine and software program for the task.
• 2.2Define the machine functions and select the appropriate program commands for the machine control system in preparation to perform and save programming operations for the fabrication process.
• 2.3Determine and check that programming terms, methods and data storage capacity are consistent with job requirements and machine specifications.
• 2.4Identify and select method of transferring programs into machine memory.
• 2.5Edit machine specification program, compensating for tool profiles, to produce the required straight and circular tool movements.

3 Transfer and test machine controls.

• 3.1Load appropriate program into machine memory using selected method.
• 3.2Enter program following machine specifications to fabricate shopfitting components.
• 3.3Conduct a dry run simulation to test program operations.
• 3.4Recognise minor faults and problems with CNC machine operation, and select and apply appropriate action to overcome issues and meet project schedules.
• 3.5Edit program and alarm settings as required using the control station.

4 Fabricate components.

• 4.1Follow manufacturer specifications to fabricate components using automatic mode.
• 4.2Identity and legibly mark face and edge of each component following design specifications to assist with efficient and accurate assembly.
• 4.3Locate and arrange components ready for assembly to align with relevant plans and specifications.
• 4.4Store plans, specifications and set-outs for future reference.

5 Clean up.

• 5.1Clean CNC machinery, tools and equipment, check for serviceability and report damage or faults.
• 5.2Clear work area and dispose of, reuse or recycle materials following workplace and environmental requirements.
• 5.3Store and secure tools and equipment following workplace procedures.

What does an assessment tool for CPCSHP3001 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CPCSHP3001 needs to address all 49 unit components: 5 elements with 26 performance criteria, 7 performance evidence requirements, 16 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 CPCSHP3001?

Auditori pulls the current release of CPCSHP3001 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 CPCSHP3001 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing CPCSHP3001 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 CPCSHP3001, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
