I priced Fairino FR5, then the budget argument started - fixture loading

I proposed using Fairino FR5 for fixture loading with a molded mounting block in a small owner-run workshop, starting with 49. My estimate covered the arm and gripper but left fixture work and staff effort unclear, which has frustrated my colleague. I'd like to define a small pilot that gives both of us a fair basis for judging the idea.

Do your observations cover the manual workflow from preparation to completion? A transfer-only baseline could omit the same activities that made the initial budget incomplete.

We watched a batch. Preparation took longer than transfer. My estimate had basically made that work disappear by wishing.
