Before I sign off a pallet drawing full of neat rectangles

Our plan for planning alternating carton layers on a pallet with Fairino FR5 in a small finished-goods dispatch area has a very neat alternating layer drawing. But a corrugated case of components has a preferred support direction, and some rotated cartons sit over gaps. I want packaging support and tool access reviewed together before I accept the pattern. Where should I start?

@GabrielBarnes0540 Start by showing the carton edges that carry load and the pallet deck support on the layer drawings. Is the complete gripper outline available to overlay as well?

We've only got top-view rectangles and a tool centre mark. The carton note specifies support direction, but the layer drawing doesn't show it.

Give packaging and the integrator a drawing combining those details. A repeated unrotated layer is worth assessing alongside the alternating one because it may better suit the specified support direction.

@NoraAli0235 I can show the pattern questions more clearly, but I can't yet say support and access both work. I'll keep the pattern decision open for the combined review.

The open acceptance decision follows from the two remaining requirements: the pattern must establish both support and tool access.
