I priced our connector-unloading pilot using the UR5e and gripper quote. My colleague asked who builds the fixture and fills the trays. I left both outside the estimate. How small should the next trial be?
Use one representative order and count the work from getting its parts ready to putting the station away, because that is where my own neat transfer estimate first ran into actual people.
We chose one housing variant. Toolroom can estimate a trial fixture from our retained samples. My colleague wants setup and supervision included even if I volunteer to do them.
