English term or phrase: ground (gearing teeth)
Chers KudoZers,

Dans le cadre de la traduction d'un texte technico-marketing, je suis à la recherche de l'équivalent français de "ground" dans la phrase suivante :

"Depending on requirements, the gearing teeth can be milled or ground."

Merci d'avance pour vos lumières.

Bien à vous,

neutral  Tony M: 'rectification' usually only applies to grinding accurately to final size; here, I believe they are actually grinding the basic profile of the teeth.
