Reverse Assembly

Reverse Assembly Purpose
Facilities often set many of their vendor trays as reverse assembly as the tray has designated spots for each instrument, therefore making it easy to see if anything is missing and speeding up the assembly process. In some cases, the vendor has preassembled the tray and it is the technician's job to go through the assembly process just to get the labels and count sheet printed.
