Tech/Engineering - Metallurgy / Casting / installation de dessablag
French term or phrase: porter sur
Good morning,


"Le cylindre d'approche coulisse dans le fût d'une position rétractées à une position de travail ou l'extrémité libre de la bouterolle est en butée sur une pièce à dessabler. On verra ci-après que, si rien ne limite la course du cylindre d'approche, celui-ci vient en position de sur-course.
La surface extérieure du cylindre d’approche porte sur la surface d’alésage en deux zones d’étanchéité et de guidage."

Could it be "includes"?

Please help

Thank you

I'm not an expert in this field, so I can't picture this in my head, but this common interpretation of "porter sur" seems to make sense.
