Which bracket measurement belongs before the correction entry?

Our FR10 fixture study has a clamped alignment tick and a released pass, but the correction operation sits between them with no measurement attached; can these records say anything about fixture performance?

They can describe the route, but the missing pre-correction measurement prevents you from estimating how far the released bracket was out. Keep correction as its own operation in the study rather than crediting the final pass to the fixture.

The correction operator remembers adjusting the angle, though the sheet only says 'rectify'; should I add his description?

Yes, identified as his account rather than a recovered measurement. Has he described what prompted the adjustment, or only what he did?

Ask to see the checking aid too. A worn bench gauge or an old drawing copy could explain what 'rectify' meant to that operator.

Gabriel, worth checking, but don't assume either was wrong. The missing record is enough of a problem without giving the operator an imaginary faulty gauge.

Agreed. Possible explanations to check, not findings.

The gauge reference matches the drawing revision; the operator says the released bracket would not enter it, then did after correction, but he has no numerical reading.

That gives you a before-and-after judgement under the gauge method, provided quality confirms how it was used. You still cannot turn it into a numerical distortion value for the fixture designer.

Quality confirmed the gauge was the required released check; we've recovered the rejection meaning, not its magnitude, and the proposed trial sheet now records the pre-correction dimension separately.

For that trial, retain the individual bracket identity through correction as well. On our comparison that was what allowed the correction effort to be tied to a result, rather than spread across the batch as a guess.
