Spanish term

procedimiento de galgueado

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Energy / Power Generation
Hi,

This is from a document regarding the assembly of wind turbines. The full sentence is: "Si las holguras son mayores de 0.25 mm seguir procedimiento de galgueado." It related to when the first section of the tower is being put in position.

Any idea what a "procedimiento de galgueado" might be?

Many thanks : )

Galgas Not an answer, but hope this may be of some help. Holgura indicates that things are not v tight fitting (stimes a gd thing, sometimes not!). So in this case if there is more than 0.25 of slack (not the right word), then sth will have to be done to right this. Galgas are measuring gauges (I know the term from vehicle geometry measuring and correction), so this is a measuring procedure of some kind...
