Cannot compare the UR5e sheet option without its replenishment work

Our carton support review now includes a proposed sheet and the space needed by the fingers. The costing still starts with sheets magically beside the station. I want replenishment and product change included before we compare this with a different layer pattern

Ask whoever currently moves the sheet stock to describe one normal replenishment. That is a cheap starting point, though the proposed robot arrangement may require a different method.

Stores brings a trolley. Packing moves the stack to the bench. Proposed stand takes part of the trolley space, so we cannot simply copy the current method into the estimate

Then show the trolley in the layout. The tool path is not the only thing that needs a route. Who decides whether to move the sheet storage or change the stand position?

Our carton section exposed a finger gap exactly under a support strip. I'd keep your material and access questions together while the trolley arrangement changes. A convenient sheet store is no help if the chosen sheet proposal never passes support review.

Zara, yes. Julia can still price the handling work provisionally without calling the support decision finished. Otherwise each team waits for the other and the blank cost line survives.

Project engineer owns the combined alternatives, Luca. Stores and packing have marked the trolley route. Chloe, thanks, provisional work estimates are what I need, not permission to buy the sheet yet

Include returning the unused size after a changeover. A new stack needs space, but the previous one does not vanish when the recipe changes.

Added. Packing also wants the stack identified at the station because two sheet sizes share the same wrapping. Support, finger access and the revised trolley route are all still being compared
