What an assessment for MEM06015 must cover

36 assessable components: 4 elements (17 performance criteria), 8 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, sketches, job sheets or work instructions

2 Forge complex shapes using hand tools and hand forming tools on an anvil

  • 2.1Calculate material volume, making allowances for bending, material shrinkage, and oxidisation
  • 2.2Produce complex shapes using appropriate hand tools and hand forming tools, procedures, and techniques
  • 2.3Check forging to ensure conformance to tolerances and specifications

3 Perform splitting and bending on anvil

  • 3.1Select and use appropriate tools and equipment
  • 3.2Apply hand forging techniques and procedures for opening and bending split sections
  • 3.3Apply and control heat in specified areas of the material to be forged in accordance with SOPs
  • 3.4Handle forgings safely
  • 3.5Check forgings to ensure conformance to tolerances and specifications

4 Produce jigs and tools for complex shapes

  • 4.1Select tools and equipment required to taper and bend materials appropriate to task requirements
  • 4.2Apply techniques for producing jigs and tools to specifications
  • 4.3Bend and shape jigs and patterns to requirements
  • 4.4Forge hand held tools to the cut pattern in accordance with specifications
  • 4.5Perform final shaping, heat treatment and sharpening to specifications

Performance evidence

  • follow work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safe work practices
  • select and use measuring guides
  • calculate material volume and allowances for bending, shrinkage and oxidisation
  • select and use hand forging tools to forge complex shapes on anvil to meet job requirements
  • open and bend split sections using heating equipment to meet safety and job requirements
  • produce jigs and tools for complex shapes
  • perform heat treatment processes for forgings
  • Note: Where a volume and/or frequency is not specified, demonstration must be provided at least once.

Knowledge evidence

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • forging hand tools and their applications
  • techniques and procedures for hand forging complex shapes
  • procedures for measuring lengths, weights and volumes of forged articles
  • calculations and formulas for measurement of complex shapes
  • forging temperatures and heat specifications for multiple pieces
  • tools, techniques and equipment required to taper and bend materials
  • effects of material shrinkage and oxidisation on the dimensions of the forged article
  • methods of overcoming/allowing for the effects of shrinkage and oxidisation when hand forging articles
  • procedures for handling forgings
  • heating equipment and applications and appropriate heat treatment processes for forging different materials.

Questions about assessing MEM06015

What does an assessment tool for MEM06015 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for MEM06015 needs to address all 36 unit components: 4 elements with 17 performance criteria, 8 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 MEM06015?

Auditori pulls the current release of MEM06015 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 MEM06015 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing MEM06015 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 MEM06015, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
