German term

Austemmen

German to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering Delivery to a plant
I came across this in a document specifying delivery to a factory of certain equipment in the metal-rolling industry.

"Abholung, Austemmen und Wiederanlieferung"

I haven't seen "Austemmen" before, and am not sure it's not a typo. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Definitely a typo ... ... for "ausstemmen" - "austemmen" does not exist.

it has to be "ausstemmen" and that's the meaning

so, they take delivery of the product, hollow it out and redeliver

I assume that will fit in with your overall context
Peer comment(s):

agree Kim Metzger : Yes, ausstemmen is chop out, mortise, chisel out in woodworking. Not sure how it fits here.
