English term

caliper bracket

English to French Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
within the caliper division of an auto parts supplier:

"Along the lines of availability, a customer challenged us to develop a specific program configuration that our competitors offered, but we did not. XXX needed to launch the Friction Choice with **Bracket** program in as little as two months. The Caliper Team worked together and met the customer’s need by pulling over 1200 SKUs, creating new Bill of Materials, sourcing, and tooling-up new **brackets** all within a limited time frame. The result was a successful launch."

Le term correct n'est pas support étrier", mais "support d'étrier", comme utilisé par Chrysler-Benz (et par autres frabricants, un peu pleu souvent)

merci à tous!
Sandra C. (asker) Apr 7, 2006:
zaphod: they are indeed talking about brake calipers... ;-)
Johannes Gleim Apr 6, 2006:
Non, support d'étrier. Mais attention ! J'ai pas trouvé votre expression "caliper bracket" dans le texte.
Sandra C. (asker) Apr 6, 2006:
support de fixation?
Sandra C. (asker) Apr 6, 2006:
merci Johannes, mais d'après ce que je comprends, l'étrier c'est le "caliper" en lui-même. Il me faut trouver la traduction de bracket dans ce contexte. Pas très facile, je sais...

Merci :)
neutral Johannes Gleim : caliper bracket = support d'étrier. But caliper bracket was not mentioned in the text. Both word are present, but separated from each other.

étrier de frein

unj peu deviné:

spring-operated caliper disc brake [tech.] = Federspeicher-Bremssattel-Scheibenbremse laut LEO

Bremssattel = étrier de frein

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 2 hrs (2006-04-06 21:48:40 GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

caliper = brake caliper = Bremssattel = étrier de frein
bracket = Halter, Halterung = support

Dans Revue technique automobile (Mercedes Classe C Diesel) je trouve: 1) Disque de frein, 2) Flasque, 3) Étrier, 4) Support d'étrier, 5. Plaquette ...

Dans le texte je trouve deux expressions: caliper (étrier) et bracket (support)

They are talking about a bracket (for the caliper) and about the caliper team (already highlighted)
