A single-panel seal test for a stacked-panel job

All separated. The demonstrator placed each panel on the bench by hand. No observation of the next panel in a stack because there was no stack.

Then ask for a stack trial before accepting the concept. A reliable seal on the top panel doesn't tell you what the panel underneath does.

Use the actual incoming surface condition too. Clean demonstration sheets can be much easier to separate than the panels people bring to the station.

Our panels arrive with a light process film and occasionally slight bow. Those were absent from the demo samples. I've asked for representative stack conditions in the revised assessment.

How does the proposal confirm that exactly one panel is delivered? That should be a defined function with an appropriate response when the result is uncertain.

It currently relies on the vacuum indication. No separate single-panel confirmation described. Tool supplier is being asked to propose and justify one.

Good. Don't let a second vacuum threshold be called single-panel detection without evidence for the stack conditions you actually have.

And check the panel shape during transfer and release. It may seal beautifully near the cups while an unsupported corner gets somewhere nobody intended.

Added support and release into the nest to the trial scope. No method selected yet. The operator recovery for a suspected pair is also an open design item.

Who will review that recovery with the operator team? A detected pair still leaves a physical situation for someone to handle, which should be resolved before the handover is called complete.
