Use the proposed torch assembly, not a generic pointer. Include the neck, nozzle, mounting parts and cable routing. Put the fixture clamps in their actual states for each seam.
8 pointsThe integrator has the torch supplier's drawing now. Their existing fixture model shows every clamp open throughout the simulated weld sequence.
8 pointsThen that model cannot answer your access question yet. Have the welding and fixture leads agree the required clamp states before the next route review.
11 pointsInclude acceptable torch angles from the welding lead. A model can dodge a clamp at an angle that does not suit the joint.
14 pointsThe fixture lead has marked which clamps remain closed. Welding has supplied the permitted approach range. The integrator is reviewing those together with the actual torch outline.
8 pointsGet a view of entry and withdrawal at the inside corner too. Reaching the seam is only part of the route.
11 pointsWill this comparison identify the fixture revision in the returned model? We have had revised clamp positions discussed against screenshots from an earlier export. It was hard to tell whether the apparent improvement belonged to the new fixture or the old image
9 pointsYes, fixture revision C and torch assembly T2 are identified on the returned review. It shows a nozzle clash at the inside corner with the required clamp closed. No usable route agreed there.
7 pointsHas the fixture designer proposed a lower-profile clamp, or is the torch supplier looking at another neck arrangement? Different changes, different work to check.
5 pointsAnd who checks access to replace the nozzle afterwards?
18 pointsMaintenance should join that review. Do not solve the welding clash by burying the consumables behind the fixture.
10 pointsThe fixture designer is reviewing a different clamp arrangement. Maintenance will check consumable access with it. Thank you for naming the actual tool details; the original line model hid the problem entirely.
16 pointsPost whether the replacement clamp still leaves room for maintenance. Curious how much space that corner needs.
