GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:manipulate
German translation:ändern
Entered by: Stefanie Guim Marce

English to German translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / Trocknungssysteme
English term or phrase: manipulate
In meinen Texten zu verschiedenen Trocknungssystemen taucht "model against" auf:

The system measures key process variables and models these measurements against standard design conditions. The system then **manipulates** process conditions to account for deviations from design. The reduction in the variability of the moisture content of the product allows the moisture to be controlled closer to product quality parameters which will lead to a superior product.

=> Wird "manipulate" in diesem Fall auch als "bearbeiten" verstanden??

Danke!
