Paper Board Tissue Product Wrapping Manufacturing Skills Training

Learning Outcomes

• Demonstrate the ability to set up and operate wrapping machinery for paper board and tissue products according to standard operating procedures.
• Apply quality control measures to inspect finished wrapping products for defects and ensure compliance with specifications.
• Analyze production data to identify inefficiencies and recommend process improvements.
• Implement safety protocols and personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements in the wrapping production area.
• Evaluate raw material quality and handle materials correctly to minimise waste.
• Design a basic production schedule for wrapping manufacturing to meet output targets.

Target Audience

This course is designed for production operators, machine setters, and manufacturing team members involved in paper board and tissue product wrapping production within the packaging or tissue manufacturing sectors.

Prerequisites

None — open enrollment.

Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Hands-on practical sessions allow learners to apply theoretical knowledge to real wrapping machinery. Learners will set up, operate, troubleshoot, and perform basic maintenance on wrapping equipment under supervision, reinforcing skills necessary for the workplace.

Practical Activities

• Practical 1: Material Handling and Machine Setup — Learners practice handling wrapping materials (films, paper, adhesives) and perform complete machine setup for a standard product size, including loading materials and adjusting machine parameters. (6h)
• Practical 2: Wrapping Operation and Quality Inspection — Learners operate wrapping machines to produce wrapped products, then inspect output for defects using quality tools. They adjust process parameters to correct common issues. (8h)
• Practical 3: Changeover and Advanced Techniques — Learners perform a product changeover, adjusting machine for different size and material. They also explore automation features like vision system alignment and robotic interfacing. (6h)
• Practical 4: Preventive Maintenance and Safety — Learners perform routine maintenance tasks such as cleaning, lubrication, and replacing wear parts. They practice lockout/tagout procedures and identify safety hazards. (4h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.

Certificate

How it works

• Certificates are auto-generated on the AATICD LMS as soon as the marks pass the 50% threshold.
• Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
• You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
• If you scored under 50% you can sit the final test again at the next scheduled session at no extra cost.

Where to find it

Sign in to the LMS, open your dashboard, and your certificates appear under My Certificates. Each entry has a View / Download button and a print option.
