German term

geortetes Wuchten

German to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering Balancing rotors
Bei Formgebung der Rotoreinzelteile ist unbedingt eine M�glichkeit vorzusehen, um Auswuchtgewichte auf AS- und NS-Seite f�r geortetes Wuchten anbringen zu k�nnen

Lexikon Maschinenbau has a plausible explanation

"Erfolgt der Massenausgleich in Komponenten auf je zwei zueinander senkrechten Durchmessern in den Ausgleichsebenen, spricht man von geortetem Ausgleich"

But can this be translated as something like 'positioned balancing"

Not pressure - balancing weights are attached to the rotor, much like the small weights used to balance tires.
