If it makes you feel any better, I've been struggling with the same thing myself. My ability to get the XY accuracy down to the top of a tooth IS slowing it down and worse, (like Calum said) it causes a vibration in the EOAT. I don’t have a time (...)

There isn't an answer--if your accuracy isn't tight, it won't ever be repeatable unless you fix it somewhere else downstream of the system (ie, a positioner chute like Derek's original idea for example) The block that is off its position is (...)
