Who is collecting the packaging and tooling comments into one revision? It sounds as though somebody keeps answering the carton-count question you aren't asking.
FR5 layer drawing still leaves the packed box underside out

Integrator owns the layout, but packaging's underside sketch wasn't attached to their latest review. I've sent it directly to both designers now.
5 pointsAsk them to show the fingers through release and withdrawal in the section too. A gap that looks sufficient in the finished layer might not leave room to get the tool out.
10 pointsWe got stuck with separate layer views on a UR5e proposal. Overlaying the lower layer made the argument much shorter. Has anyone checked the first layer against your pallet deck as well?
4 pointsElliot, yes, the bottom layer gets forgotten because everyone is busy arguing about rotation. It still needs the carton bearing areas drawn against the deck.
4 pointsAnika, are short orders common enough that partial pallets need their own agreed arrangement?
4 pointsYes, Oliver. Packaging has the order mix now. Elliot, deck support is included in the revised request; Bruno, so is complete finger withdrawal.
9 pointsOliver, do you normally finish partials by hand? I'd want to know where the operator needs to reach before recommending another gap arrangement.
3 pointsIn our area, yes, with an agreed manual pattern. I wouldn't assume Anika's proposed automatic sequence could leave the pallet anywhere convenient for that without a separate check.
3 pointsKeep the operator's pallet diagram with the approved revision when you get there. We changed a pattern and nearly trained people to reproduce the previous one.
3 pointsAnd keep any lower-count alternative in the price comparison if one is proposed. More pallets can change the labour saving quite a lot, even when the tool gets an easier job.
14 pointsJoint section review is booked. No replacement pattern proposed yet. Henry, the operator diagram is listed as a handover item, not something we'll remember afterwards.
16 pointsLet us know what packaging says about that rotated row. That's the missing answer, even after all these useful drawing additions.
