Re: Spare parts

Spare parts are identical parts as used on your robot so that a failed part can be replaced. To help you understand, the 2011 definition is this...
A SPARE PART used as a direct replacement for a failed or defective ROBOT part (either KOP item or non-KOP item) that has already been included in the cost accounting is covered by the accounting for the original part

While that definition is not in the robot rules this year it can give you an idea of what is meant by the 2012 rule.
