Have they seen your taped carton, or only its dimensions?
8 pointsSend a few normal packed examples with the seam untouched. Cheaper than arguing from a photograph of a different box.
10 pointsOnly dimensions so far. Packing is selecting examples from both board finishes we receive
7 pointsWe once had a packer shift the tape to make a trial easier, so tell the supplier these are the supplied constructions and any proposed packaging change needs a separate decision.
11 pointsInclude an ordinary order ending as well as full cartons arriving steadily. Does someone currently rotate the last carton or leave it in a different place on the bench?
12 pointsOur quality team used one beautifully square sample until receiving brought a normal stack over, so I would let packing choose rather than select the nicest-looking boxes yourself
4 pointsOmar, yes, but normal doesn't mean crushed returns. Jack needs the range they actually accept for this job, otherwise the trial turns into an argument about damaged packaging.
15 pointsWho would maintain a special carton specification if they propose one?
15 pointsElla, the last carton stays in the same marked bench position. Anna, packaging would own a changed specification. They do not want another carton type for this job
11 pointsOur trainer found the normal-cycle explanation easy and the failed-pick explanation missing. Ask what the operator sees if a carton does not meet the pickup condition, including who handles it afterwards.
10 pointsAt a previous bench we discovered the empty cartons stacked beautifully and the packed ones bowed, so I would keep the contents in these samples even for the first comparison.
21 pointsAlex's failed-pick point needs the actual application response. A vacuum reading on a supplier's bench won't show what Jack's operator is told.
23 pointsThe supplier tried the selected packed samples. One board finish failed their holding check at the seam. They are proposing a different cup arrangement, with no carton change
0 pointsDoes that arrangement still release cleanly into your destination?
6 pointsAnd keep both board finishes in the revised comparison, Jack, rather than let the difficult one disappear from the sample list.
11 pointsBoth retained. Revised pickup and release checks are booked with our destination sample. Alex, the integrator has also included the failed-pick message and operator response in that visit
0 pointsThat's enough to have a useful trial. I'd be interested in whether the alternative copes without somebody smoothing each carton first.
