SafeTex Jun 16, 2020:
@ all Could this be a typo of synkning (synchronization)?
liz askew Jun 16, 2020:
could there be some commas missing? and it could mean "stitching"?
liz askew Jun 16, 2020:
Though I don't see how this fits with "filled bottles?"

visual inspection

This reads like you're doing something with quality control of production -- I've done this for laboratory/medical production. Possibly? Otherwise we could use more context.

This is an audit... likely of a production facility or procedure.

Thanks, David!
agree Leif Ohman : Looks like Swedish makes a distinction between inspection in the regulatory/compliance sense, "inspektion", and inspection as part of the manufacturing process, "(av)syning". Lots of ads for "operatörer för… avsyning" vs. Läkemedelsverket's "inspektörer".
