Our released bracket check uses the opposite face from the fixture sheet

The linked bracket records now identify individual parts. New snag for our UR5e proposal: fixture and released inspection reference opposite faces. Correction estimate still open.

Are those faces meant to be interchangeable in the drawing?

No. Released inspection uses the specified datum. Fixture sheet calls the other face 'base'. No explanation.

Ask the fixture designer how 'base' relates to the drawing datum. Don't rename it yourself.

Is 'base' even a measurement reference, or just the face the welder puts down? That old word might be doing two jobs.

Bruno's distinction matters. A setup instruction can name a resting face without claiming to measure the final dimension from it. Need the actual check method beside that label.

Found the original setup sketch. 'Base' labels the loading face only; the tick checks clamp engagement, not dimension.

That explains the apparent pass before release. Keep the tick, just stop comparing it with a dimensional result.

Can your estimator now see how many parts needed correction after the actual dimensional check? That's still the expensive question.
