Dutch to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Metallurgy / Casting
Dutch term or phrase: uitkoker
Wordt gebruikt bij het gieten van loodknuppels van een loodlegering, zie brontekst hieronder.

"Als de legering door het laboratorium is goedgekeurd wordt het materiaal uitgekookt.
Hiervoor wordt een uitkoker gereedgemaakt d.m.v. een monsterzakje gemengd met zwavel en lichtvochtig zaagsel.
Dit wordt d.m.v. de uitkoker onder het metaal gedompeld (zorg dat de gaten van de uitkoker open zijn.)
Het metaal moet gedurende een kwartier uitgekookt te worden."

neutral  Bryan Crumpler: Quick ??. I agree with boiling/boiler, but I'm not competent in metallurgy to confirm a translation. Is there any difference of nuance between koken and uitkoken like there is with slapen and uitslapen? Is it more extreme? Like sterilizer/purifier? / Kthx

  -> Uitkoken = boil according to Translex Technology and uitkoken is as ambiguous in Dutch as boil is in English. Someone can be uitgekookt = shrewd.//Slapen en uitslapen still occurs in the same bed, doesn't it?

agree  Lianne van de Ven: Was working on my answer while you posted this. Working, because the source is a bit of a linguistic shortcut, so I was making sure I got it right (je maakt de uitkoker niet gereed d.m.v. zwavel en zaagsel).
