centrare con un apposito strumento di misura


Explanation:
Ciao Maria Luisa!
Secondo me significa semplicemente "centrare con un apposito strumento di misura". L'idea mi viene da "dial" che mi ricorda il dial gauge/dial indicator. Ecco la spiegazione di cos'è: "Dial indicators, also known as dial gauges and probe indicators, are instruments used to accurately measure small linear distances, and are frequently used in industrial and mechanical processes. They are named so because the measurement results are displayed in a magnified way by means of a dial."
In bocca al lupo! Ciao
