Deutsch: Automobilproduktion / Español: Manufactura automotriz / Português: Fabricação automotiva / Français: Fabrication automobile / Italiano: Produzione automobilistica
Automotive manufacturing refers to the industrial process of designing, producing, and assembling motor vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, and motorcycles. This sector involves various stages such as research and development (R&D), engineering, parts production, assembly, and quality control. It is a key driver of technological innovation and economic growth, supporting numerous related industries such as steel, electronics, and logistics.
Deutsch: Luft- und Raumfahrtindustrie / Español: Industria aeroespacial / Português: Indústria aeroespacial / Français: Industrie aérospatiale / Italiano: Industria aerospaziale
Aerospace industry refers to the sector involved in the research, design, production, and maintenance of aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, and defense systems. This industry encompasses both civil aviation (commercial and private aircraft) and military aerospace (fighter jets, missiles, and defense technologies). It plays a crucial role in global transportation, defense, and space exploration.
Deutsch: Akkreditierung / Español: Acreditación / Português: Acreditação / Français: Accréditation / Italiano: Accreditamento
Accreditation in the industrial context refers to the formal recognition by an authoritative body that an organisation, institution, or specific process meets established standards of quality, competence, and reliability. It ensures that entities involved in manufacturing, testing, or service delivery adhere to industry-specific norms, promoting trust, consistency, and compliance across sectors.
Deutsch: Asbestose / Español: Asbestosis / Português: Asbestose / Français: Asbestose / Italiano: Asbestosi
Asbestosis in the industrial context refers to a chronic lung disease caused by prolonged inhalation of asbestos fibres, which are used in various industrial applications due to their heat resistance and durability. The disease is characterised by inflammation and scarring (fibrosis) of lung tissue, leading to breathing difficulties and other severe health issues.
Deutsch: Audiosystem / Español: Sistema de audio / Português: Sistema de áudio / Français: Système audio / Italiano: Sistema audio
Audio system in the industrial context refers to integrated setups designed to produce, control, and distribute sound within industrial or commercial environments. These systems are tailored for specific functions such as communication, safety alerts, public address (PA), or enhancing user experiences in entertainment or commercial spaces.
Deutsch: Markise / Español: Toldo / Português: Toldos / Français: Auvent / Italiano: Tenda
Awning in the industrial context refers to a protective covering or structure, typically made of fabric, metal, or polycarbonate, that is installed over windows, doors, or open spaces. It provides shade, weather protection, and energy efficiency for buildings or outdoor areas in industrial, commercial, or residential settings.
Deutsch: Agro-Verarbeitung / Español: Agroprocesamiento / Português: Agroprocessamento / Français: Agro-transformation / Italiano: Agroprocesso
Agro-processing in the industrial context refers to the transformation of raw agricultural products into finished goods or value-added products for consumption or further manufacturing. This includes operations such as sorting, cleaning, grading, milling, packaging, and processing raw materials like grains, fruits, vegetables, meat, and dairy. Agro-processing is a vital sector of the agro-industrial complex, linking agriculture with manufacturing and contributing significantly to economic development.
Deutsch: Amorphes Polymer / Español: Polímero amorfo / Português: Polímero amorfo / Français: Polymère amorphe / Italiano: Polimero amorfo
Amorphous polymer in the industrial context refers to a type of polymer whose molecular chains are arranged in a disordered, non-crystalline structure. Unlike crystalline polymers, which have a regular, repeating pattern, amorphous polymers lack long-range order, resulting in unique properties such as transparency, flexibility, and impact resistance. These characteristics make them highly valuable in various industrial applications.
