Our UR5e trial images label moving bright streaks as scratches. Same brushed plate, different labels after reseating. Need reliable examples.

Can you still identify that plate in the sample box, Fiona, and get quality to look at it before you recapture anything?

Found it. A small edge scuff is visible, but not the wide stripe across the face.

Keep both in view when you plan the new images, because getting rid of the stripe won't help if the edge scuff disappears from the camera as well

Who decides whether that edge scuff is acceptable? We had three people tuning an inspection around three different personal standards, which was a surprisingly effective way to achieve nothing all afternoon.

Quality decides. They haven't judged this scuff yet; I only meant I can see it.

Give the plate an identifier that stays with its pictures. We once had a marked sample bag reused for another part, and the file names then sounded much more certain than the contents deserved.

Bruno, did you end up marking the parts themselves or just changing how the bags were handled? We can't put anything on the inspected face of ours

Quality rejected this plate for the edge scuff. Imaging is testing a repeatable view using that identified sample.

Can the new view still show the scuff clearly, Fiona, or has the team only reported that the bright stripe is gone?

Stripe reduced, scuff still too faint. No reliable inspection result yet. Supplier is comparing lighting arrangements.

Chloe, we used an approved mark on a non-inspected area and a matching bag. The important change was stopping people swapping parts between bags on the bench; the identifier wasn't much use if nobody kept it attached to the right piece.

Thanks for saying the scuff is still faint, Fiona; I'll be interested in the next comparison, because a calmer-looking image is not automatically an easier defect to find.
