German term

Nullserienbegleitung

German to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general)
Nach der Installation des BV-Systems in der Kundenanlage wird dieses vom Systemanbieter parametrisiert. Alle Messungen werden in einer Excel-Datei gespeichert, um die Prüfsicherheit und die Rejectrate zu verifizieren.Eine Nullserienbegleitung stellt sicher, dass die gewählten Parameter praxistauglich sind.

I have a task list to translate, one of the points on the list is Nullserienbegleitung. There is no more context, but in essence I gather it would be the same as the above example from the Internet. "Supervising the pilot run" perhaps?

Thanks for any help/ideas!

ThermaCAM Researcher
The ThermaCAM Researcher is a suite of Windows-based analysis software and interconnect hardware for the SC series cameras. First introduced in the first quarter of 2000, this software and hardware product allows design engineers to evaluate static or dynamic thermal events and data. Information is captured and
stored on standard PC memory devices and can be analyzed either within the package or by using third party software such as MatLAB(R). The product is used in applications including
product development, failure analysis, pilot production monitoring and thermal management.

Note: There are some relevant Google hits for "pre-production monitoring" but, personally, I would use "pilot production (run)" for "Nullserie" (//Vorserie).

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks everybody! I decided against pre-production tests in spite of the peer agreements because the document lists various other test that are performed prior to production of the pilot series itself, and it would be too ambiguous which test are "pre-pilot-production" and which are "pre-real-production".

Good luck!
