Holding a molded plastic sleeve less squarely than before (tray unloading)

We keep nudging pickup points when our Fairino FR10 setup gets unreliable at tray unloading with a molded plastic sleeve in a shared tray handling station. The tray looks like it's in the same place, but the grip seems less square. I'm suspicious of all these tweaks. What should I inspect before blaming the arm or reteaching everything?

@DineshBell0647 Look at the relationship between the workpiece and fixture before contact, then during gripping. Can your existing observations show when the change in angle begins?

In the footage, it sits consistently in the checked fixture and turns during gripping. So the crooked position isn't there at the start.

@DineshBell0647 Preserve the current settings and pause further nudges. Have maintenance inspect finger mounting, contact surfaces and tray seating under the proper isolation procedure, using that observation to guide the checks.

@MinaBaker0511 The maintenance notes show contact pads were replaced before the first point adjustment. That's the first useful clue I've found in the history.
