I am working out a naming scheme for fixture and jaw drawings before I have a pile of almost identical files. For an FR5 tooling proposal, would you give the pair one assembly number with two detail numbers, or make the matching revision explicit in each filename?
I am asking about the drawing records, not suggesting that a label alone proves a pair is suitable. Examples of a scheme that stayed understandable after several revisions would help.
I'd favour the assembly record naming both detail revisions. Then a change to the left jaw doesn't require pretending the right drawing changed too. Filenames alone seem a fragile place to carry which pair was agreed.
So the detail revision numbers needn't match each other, provided the assembly record identifies the intended combination? That's the part I was trying to squeeze into the filenames.
That's how I'd record it: explicit left and right drawing references under the assembly revision. Not 'use latest'. Someone replacing one half needs the intended combination, not a hunt through today's folder.
