English term

a predetermined distance

English to Italian Tech/Engineering Engineering (general)
"A predetermined distance" è forse un refuso per "at a predetermined distance"?

" Additionally, the two arms of the same drive unit are connected to each other by means of an element with elastic properties which acts under compression such that, departing from an initial position in which the arms of the same unit are separated *a predetermined distance*, if these are actively pulled in opposite directions, approaching each other, the element with elastic properties is compressed and once said pulling force ceases to be exerted on the arms, both arms are automatically separated as the element with elastic properties tends to recover the original shape thereof."

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (2): Francesco Badolato, Barbara Turchetto

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
