How can I compare an FR10 adapter that turns the gripper sideways?

Our FR10 arrived with an adapter that changes the gripper orientation from the sample trial. The seller says equivalent. Our inspection pieces enter narrow tray pockets. I need more than a matching bolt pattern.

Is it the whole gripper turned, or different fingers on the same body?

Whole gripper turned relative to the wrist. Fingers look like the trial pair. The delivered adapter has no readable identifier.

Does the seller's equivalent claim include the tray approach, or are they only saying the gripper bolts on?

A changed orientation may be workable, but the sample trial cannot establish clearance for an adapter that was not in it.

Is returning it for the demonstrated adapter still an option? I'd ask that alongside the technical questions. Otherwise you can spend a surprising amount of your own time helping someone justify their substitution.

Ada, their answer only mentions mounting. Maya, I asked for the original adapter and they offered to demonstrate this one instead. No return option confirmed.

Would they show your narrow tray pockets, including release and withdrawal, with the actual delivered adapter clearly identified?

And the fingers open, please. That's the wide bit in our tray.

I'd still keep the original-adapter request open. A demonstration might give you a useful alternative, but it shouldn't quietly become your agreement to pay for adapting the rest of the station.

Did their replacement demonstration ever come through, Lin?

Yes. It shows the new adapter and our sample pieces, but uses an open board instead of the pocket tray. Grip looks plausible. Tray access remains unanswered. I've pointed out that specific omission.
