Request the complete loaded assembly, not just a heavier total. Its centre of gravity and inertia matter with the proposed grip position, orientations and motion.
22 pointsThe quotes list the fittings, but neither defines where they sit. So I cannot even compare the assemblies yet.
13 pointsCorrect. Have each supplier identify the arrangement it is offering and assess it against the applicable robot limits. A parts list is useful purchasing information, but it does not establish the installed load geometry.
20 pointsInclude the assembly revision in the purchase scope. Maintenance will need to know which fingers and adapter the assessment covers. An alternative spare may fit mechanically without preserving the assessed load or grip arrangement.
12 pointsJasper, that also makes a later supplier substitution visible. Lucy should not have to guess whether a changed finger length is covered by the old assessment.
18 pointsBoth now have our intended nest transfer and housing grip position. I've asked for their complete arrangements and exclusions.
4 pointsThat gives them a common task to assess. Have they accepted responsibility for the assessment, or only acknowledged receiving your request?
18 pointsOnly receipt acknowledged. Nobody has supplied an assessment or agreed its scope yet. Purchase remains undecided.
21 pointsKeep that responsibility open on the comparison sheet. The hardware price cannot quietly become a complete engineering offer because all the component names are present. Someone must own checking the offered assembly for your task.
