Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / misdruk (metaalperswerk)
Dutch term or phrase: misdruk (metaalperswerk)
Ik vertaal algemene voorwaarden voor een bedrijf dat persdelen uit messing levert. In een van de definities komt in een opsomming de term 'misdruk' voor. Het gaat hier dus om een misdruk in de zin van metaalperswerk. Ik vind veel termen voor misdruk in de zin van een typefout of zetfout (misprint, mackle), maar dat lijkt in dit geval de lading niet te dekken. Bestaat er een andere term voor?

reject
Explanation:
I would simply use reject. That is a typical term for anything produced that is not up to specifications. I do not think die casting error is absolutely right either, since these parts are probably made with "injection die-casting techniques", namely under pressure.
