one trim plate has acquired three moving scratches

I have stopped adding reject examples to our FR5 camera folder. The same brushed trim plate appears in three poses, with a bright line in a different place each time. Nobody has identified a corresponding scratch on the part. We need a defensible reference set before threshold work. I can organise the parts and images; I cannot decide the cosmetic standard on quality's behalf.

Our image review became easier once quality marked the physical feature on an identified sample; can your inspector examine this plate against the acceptance examples before the imaging team changes anything?

Quality has the plate. There is a small edge scuff, not along any of the three bright lines. Its acceptability is still being checked.

Keep that scuff decision separate from the image labels for now, and retain the original captures so the imaging team can explain why the bright lines moved.

Can the loader tell when the plate isn't seated properly?

Not reliably. One locating corner is hidden by the plate. Tooling is checking whether that contact arrangement needs changing.

Have they settled the scuff decision, Evan? I'd like to know whether you now have an accepted plate with misleading images or an actual reject whose mark needs to remain visible.

Accepted plate. Quality says the edge scuff is within their approved example range. The moving bright lines are not their rejection reason. I've withdrawn these images from the proposed reject set.

Thank you for giving the actual decision, Evan; accepted and marked can coexist, which the original scratch labels made rather hard to see.

Who will provide the replacement reference samples while tooling reviews the seating?

Quality has selected accepted and rejected plates with identified features. Camera team is comparing lighting on a fixed presentation first. Repeated loading remains a separate check because the nest review is unfinished.

Keep the eventual loader in that nest review. A good reference plate won't explain an invisible bad seat.
