How do I compare FR10 spacer demos using different trays?

Seven spacers planned. One demo uses tidy pockets, another our awkward tray. What comparison would settle the shortlist?

Give both candidates the same start and finish conditions. If one relies on a new tray, show it as an alternative workflow rather than faster evidence for the current one

For seven spacers I would pay particular attention to preparation and changeover, because a faster transfer can disappear inside the time spent arranging a small order for the demonstration.

The tidy tray would need refilling by hand. Our existing tray arrives ready from the preceding operation.

Then put that refill work into its option. Don't compare one robot after preparation with another still doing the awkward part of your real job

Could the preceding operation eventually supply the proposed tray directly, Aaron, or would that require changes outside the scope you are comparing?

It would need a separate upstream change. Nobody has agreed it. Current ranking withdrawn.

The videos still show possible approaches, just not a fair winner. I'd ask for current-tray trials before spending time estimating an upstream change nobody has chosen
