This is from a manual that describes all the functions of an operator(control) panel of a system for seaming metal parts.

... yes, I agree with Valeria, the running total of the parts produced up to that moment
sara_missy Jan 14, 2010:
Right! That's right, Valeria: it means exactly the total quantity of parts that the machine can produce in its life.
Valeria Faber Jan 14, 2010:
... maybe the total of units produced during the lifetime of the machine

lifetime quantity

As Valeria suggested, "pezzi vita" is the total quantity of parts that the machine can produce in its lifetime. In English it could be translated with "lifetime quantity", but it is just an idea!
