Italian term

azzeramento di fine corsa

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering Flow dividers
Nonostante le buone prestazioni, non sempre è possibile ottenere contemporaneamente il raggiungimento a fine corsa degli steli. Gli elementi di rifasamento, costituiti da valvole di non ritorno e limitatrici opportunamente assemblate secondo gli utilizzi, provvedono all’****azzeramento di fine corsa*** bilanciando il movimento di uno o più attuatori in ritardo rispetto agli altri già sopraggiunti in battuta.

Got the meaning but I can't find a good translation for 'azzeramento'. Any ideas?

stroke end position setting

Hi
Although this is slightly tricky stuff, I would say that "corsa" should be translated "stroke" since we are referring to, presumably, hydraulic (possibly pneumatic) rams of some sort - your text clearly mentions the movement of piston rods (steli). It seems that the timing (I think "refasamento" would be "timing" in this context) system is designed to assure that those actuators that are required to work in unison all reach their stroke end positions (rather extending incompletely) simultaneously. Although the Italian refers to "azzeramento" I suspect that the word "zero" is not strictly relevant here.
Cheers
Derek
