01 / MISSION

Define the operating envelope.

The objective: assessing repeatable assembly and parts-handling operations. Start with one bounded workflow and record how it is completed today. The decision owner is typically among plant engineers and production managers. Document where human judgment remains necessary before selecting a machine.

02 / SITE FIT

The environment is part of the specification.

Part presentation, tooling, cycle variation, quality checks, and integration. Build these conditions into the demonstration, including the less convenient parts of a normal operating day. Confirm recovery behavior, maintenance access, and who owns an unresolved exception.

03 / ACCEPTANCE TESTS

Prove the workflow.

Actual parts across tolerance limits
Changeover and fault recovery
Application risk assessment

04 / SUCCESS METRICS

Measure useful output.

Accepted units per hour

Scrap and rework rate

Compare the baseline with pilot results, including human assistance, failed cycles, consumables, and service time.
