FORMING, TOOLING AND REVISIONS / FIELD NOTE 35
Mirrored Panels and Tooling Families
Two panels can look symmetrical in elevation while their returns, attachments or finish directions differ. Even when a face can share tooling, the two parts may need distinct trim or inspection instructions.
What to check on your project
Model the handed versions separately and assign unique IDs. Compare the actual surfaces and mark each changed hole or edge. Ask which production steps can be shared and which require different setups.
