Have packing identify ordinary accepted examples across those conditions, then ask the supplier to compare the complete pickup, transfer and release. Keep the preparation they perform visible too
11pointsPacking has selected examples. The tape overlap is within its accepted range; we aren't proposing to reject those cartons before the tool sees them.
9pointsInclude who presents them. We had a proposal where somebody quietly rotated every box to offer the clean face, then everyone quoted the robot time as though that person didn't exist.
5pointsAnd ask what happens when the pickup condition is not met. The operator needs a defined response, not a demonstration that only shows the cartons which sealed.
9pointsTheo's preparation point can decide the job. In our comparison the extra handling overlapped packing work, so the problem was not just a few seconds added to the timer.
0pointsSupplier asks us to turn the boxes so the cups avoid the seam. That would be extra preparation by the packer, not our current incoming arrangement.
15pointsTreat that as a different workflow option, then ask whether they can also assess the existing presentation. You need both the technical result and the labour implication
1pointsNadia, did you abandon that option or find a different person to do the preparation?
3pointsWe abandoned it for that order mix. Nobody had spare capacity at the right time, and adding cover removed the benefit. Another allocation might work elsewhere; ours did not.
4pointsFor Jasper's samples, keep both finishes and the ordinary seams in each defined option. Otherwise the rotated-box test could quietly become a nicer-board test as well.
16pointsBoth options are in the request now. Packer is estimating the extra preparation against those same cartons. Supplier hasn't completed a representative handling trial yet.
0pointsThanks, Nadia. That's the bit our estimates tend to call available labour until somebody asks available when.
10pointsRosa, the failed-pick indication and who handles the carton are also in the trial brief. No vacuum-tool acceptance from the smooth sample.
5pointsKeep the complete results when they arrive, including unsuccessful pickups and release problems; a selected clip would put you back where this started
