German to English translations [PRO]
Science - Aerospace / Aviation / Space | | German term or phrase: Durchgangskontrolle | Durchgangskontrolle (DUKO) Ausgebaute Flugzeugersatzteile (Umlaufteile) bedürfen nach Ausbau einer Überprüfung und/oder Instandsetzung, damit sie wieder verwendet werden können.
Dazu werden die Umlaufteile vom Mechaniker zusammen mit der Wechseldokumentation, an den hierfür in den Hallen eingerichteten Bahnhöfen abgelegt. Der interne Transportdienst der LTL bringt diese Teile zur Materialdurchgangskontrolle (DUKO).
I've done some research and have found the following possible translations:
conduction test
continuity test
I'm not too sure about these, can anyone think of anything better?
Thanks in advance,

| | | transit inspection | Explanation:
Because the parts are general aircraft components, not just electrical components, I think that "continuity testing" is off the mark.
These are "Umlaufteile", which implies that they are taken in and out of service, and the inspection is done as they are moved from service to a repair / storage facility. |
