We're considering Fairino FR5 for machine fixture unloading with a rectangular polymer blank in a compact machining workshop, with 44 planned. The sketch reaches the fixture. Trouble is, we left out the gripper body and open door. i'd like to check access properly before choosing an arm.

Can you compare measured door geometry with the proposed gripper envelope? An offline layout including both may expose access issues that the reach sketch doesn't represent.

@PriyaAllen0307 Checked them. The approach clips the handle; the workpiece clears. No wonder my first sketch looked so reassuring.

Start from those measurements and review approach and withdrawal offline with the full tool, cables and maintenance access included. A revised mount then needs the integrator's assessment.

@PriyaAllen0307 Our buyer says go bigger. Does that help, or just buy the same problem in a larger arm?
