production testing


Explanation:
Answer added for the benefit of those who, like me, come across this later: Serienprüfung refers to tests carried out as part of the production process, usually at the end of the production line and usually on a high volume of products or components. There are various ways that this is referred to in English: simply "production testing" is the most common, but if you want to be more specific you can say "in-line production testing", or "post-production testing" (but note that "pre-production testing" is also possible). "High-volume production testing" is another possibility. ("Low-volume production testing" is Kleinserienprüfung.)

Example sentence(s):
  • ThermoChucks are incorporated into wafer prober equipment for laboratory analysis and for in-line production testing of semiconductor wafers.
  • The ability of automatic test equipment to sort out good from bad units is only the first requirement of modern production test equipment.

neutral  Lancashireman: 1) I can see why you may have a bee in your bonnet about 'series/serial'; 2) Why do you consistently post your answers with Confidence Level 5 (= Highest - I am sure)? c) Kindly refrain from casting aspersions on the native speaker credentials of others.
