Back to A press that often stopped ran every scheduled hour

Press 3. Sep 7, 6:03 am. Camera 2.

The scrap bin emptied as a shift starts, beside a hot dryer

What it shows: The scrap bin beside press 3 is emptied as the day shift starts, and the dryer beside it is full and hot.

Why it proves the point: Camera 2 shows the same at the 6 pm shift start, which removes the two usual causes of stops on press 3.
