German term

mit 2,5mm ausgeführen

German to English Tech/Engineering Manufacturing Riveting
Context:

Nach Zeichnung A wird auf Position X der 2. Niet
von oben beim Doubler Pos. Y, als Pressure Point mit 2,5mm ausgeführt.

I'm still not 100% certain about this, what precisely does "als Pressure Point mit 2,5mm ausgeführt" mean? In particular, what does the "mit 2,5mm" refer to, does it mean the size of the pressure point, the size (diameter/length) of the rivet, or something else entirely?

Please could you have a look at the new questions/discussion points that have arisen on http://www.proz.com/kudoz/3561095 and http://www.proz.com/kudoz/german_to_english/manufacturing/34... , I'd much appreciate that!
Blaess Oct 10, 2009:
No new light The structure of the sentence is clear "... der 2. Niet von oben ... (wird) als ... Pressure Point ... ausgeführt" - "the second rivet from top ... is designed as ... pressure point". rivet/pressure point has a measure (diameter) of 2.5mm. The rivet can be anything from threaded to hollow. - see my explanation in the answer below.

Explanation from the client: Damit ist gemeint, dass hier ein Druckpunkt mit einer 2,5mm Bohrung platziert wird.<br>Does that shed any new light on this? Now I'm not even sure if it is actually a rivet or a pressure point that we are talking about.

German term (edited): als Pressure Point mit 2,5mm ausgeführt
Selected

designed as 2.5mm pressure point

explanation:
the 2nd rivet is built and functions as a pressure point
thus, here: rivet = pressure point
the measure is 2.5mm - you can only guess without the drawing that it is the diameter

the 2nd rivet is designed ... as 2.5mm pressure point
the 2nd rivet is constructed ... as 2.5mm pressure point
the 2nd rivet is built ... as 2.5mm pressure point

agree Rolf Keiser

Danke!
disagree Erich Friese : ....'ausgeführt' suggest the thing (whatever it is) has not only been designed, but indeed it has already been built

disagree - in technical language design regularly includes the construction process - more or less dependent on the author; nevertheless, my alternative suggestions do state just that.
Something went wrong...
