"The T1 trial stamping exhibits a 2.4mm springback deviation along the door flange radius, exceeding our $± 0.5\text{mm}$ CAD tolerance. We have provided the 3D optical scan deviation mesh. We require your CNC toolmakers to work 24/7 double shifts to re-cut the die surface and deliver T2 validation samples by next Tuesday."
