Tech/Engineering - Metrology | | French term or phrase: multicotes | This question is related to my similar question http://www.proz.com/kudoz/2513266, however I found out that the German text I am translating is actually itself a translation of a French original. The French is:
"Systèmes de Mesure" is the name of a product, described as follows:
----
Systèmes de Mesure Multicotes et Centrales de Mesure
La centrale permet l’acquisition et le traitement statistique
des mesures effectuées en milieu industriel.
Les éléments standardisés Modular permettent de concevoir et réaliser des montages de contrôle **multicotes** pour les pièces les plus diverses comme des pièces de révolutions ou des pièces prismatiques.
----
Thanks in advance for your ideas.

Of course, the word 'cote' has to do with marking and measuring 'prendre les cotes' - measure something up. It seems reasonable then that 'multicotes' should mean measuring several times - multigauging. |

Mesure Multicote
Permet, par comparaison avec une pièce étalon, l’évaluation globale
(bonne/mauvaise) d’une pièce à partir de plusieurs mesures (indication par LED).
Chaque voie de mesure peut inclure un ou deux capteurs (A+B, A-B) avec des
valeurs d’origine, d’échelle et de seuils indépendantes. Le mode multicote permet
d’utiliser jusqu’à 30 capteurs incrémentaux et/ou numériques
That's as far as I can go
Not my field really :-)

I normally translate medical texts,
but this would certainly seem to involve precision measuring systems
Look at this site, it even has pictures:

I think
Profile measuring machine for precision turned parts
is not a bad suggestion!

Asker: Thanks, can you suggest a translation?
Asker: Thanks again. I noticed the multicoDes, but there is only one instance of this spelling, compared to several multicotes.
Asker: Thanks. The picture in the TESA link makes it very clear what they are talking about.
