Misread Metrics: Payload, Repeatability and Speed
These three are the most frequently compared across incompatible conditions.
Typical misreadings
Comparing payload at different reaches, treating repeatability as absolute accuracy, and using maximum speed as a stand-in for cycle time.
How to compare properly
Compare at the same reach, posture and payload. Ask for the test standard and temperature conditions behind accuracy figures. Measure cycle time on the complete work step.
When reporting
Keep the qualifying conditions with the number. If conditions are unknown, say so.
