I proposed using Universal Robots UR5e for fixture loading with a machined spacer in a small owner-run workshop, starting with 158. My estimate covered the arm and gripper but left fixture work and staff effort unclear, which has frustrated my colleague. I'd like to define a small pilot that gives both of us a fair basis for judging the idea.

@JoBell0679 Have you measured the whole manual job, preparation included? Timing just the transfer could hide the same missing labour again.
