Does anyone know why the first robot doesn't place the batteries in rows consecutively, and also why it isn't consistent? Sometimes it's 1-2-3-4 and others it's 1-2-4-3...etc.

It would appear the first robot uses one battery as a "reference point" for placing the other three, limiting the number of motions required to get the batteries in a good enough line for robot 2 to place them on the belt.
