English term or phrase: off pivoting center distance gauge units
In particular "Off pivoting":• 5 Off Pivoting Centre Distance (CD) Gauge Units are arranged around the outside of the component The Units consist of a Rolling Master mounted on a precision spindle assembly. A transducer monitors the movement of gauge unit during the measurement cycle.This type of pivoting unit reduces the horizontal depth of the gauge resulting in a reduced reach for manual loading. Maintainability also benefits by reducing the number of precision moving components and through the unique way that the gauge units can be pivoted towards the operator for set-up procedures.

French translation:jauges de mesure de la distance de l'axe [central] de pivotement
Explanation:
à moins qu'il y ait plusieurs axes de pivotement, je laiserais tomber central car par définition l'axe est toujours le centre de rotation.

Off pivoting centre distance = off (pivoting centre distance) = off distance from the pivoting center.

C'est à dire la distance qui sépare la jauge (probablement un comparateur qui mesure en fait les variations de distance pendant la rotation) de l'axe de rotation.

Je suis d'accord que la phrase est un peu ambigüe, mais je ne vois pas d'autre possibilité.
