English translation:Inspection
Explanation:
would be the usual translation if it involves the manufacture of automotive parts. Quality check. to make sure there is nothing obviously wrong. Testing usually only comes when larger components are assembled, but may also apply here.

Checking, of course, is another possibility. \"Checked by 1507\" might be on a tag attached to a part.
