trouble hotspot Explanation: maybe or error hotspot -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-12 17:30:02 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- hot spot -- 2 words - sorry -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-13 08:13:52 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think the tricky bit is here that Fehlerschwerpunkt here could refer to \'location\' or \'type pf errors.\' To cover both you might say typical occurrence of errors or go for Hartwig\'s solution just \'typical errors\' |

peer agreement (net): +1"typical errors" Explanation: I would use this term if referring to the human element in the production process. "Typical defects" would be more appropriate when talking about the faults in the production process itself. |

Points in such a processing chain (forgot the exact meaning but sure you can find it on the net). Consequently you may also select "most critical or likely places for defects to occur" Jacques Van de Velde |
