Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / welding
French term or phrase: témoin de production
As part of an inspection in preparation for the welding of butt joints, the foreman is ordered to check the 'mise en place des cales martyrs ou des témoins de production'.

Has anyone encountered such 'témoins' in the context of welding before? Are they removable/disposable 'samples' or do they remain in place as 'indicators'?

disagree  Tony M: Nonsense, in relation to the given context! And an ill-advised term, as ambiguous.
