English term or phrase: trim/hem edge point
Bonjour,
je traduis ce manuel pour un outil de métrologie 3D. Malheureusement je trouve très peu de documentation sur le sujet.
L'outil de métrologie effectue des comparaisons avec le dessin CAO et utilise différents types de points pour établir des caractéristiques (bords, plis, etc.). Je n'arrive pas à trouver les traduction s officielles des 4 point suivants. Je suis un peu perdu.
Je ne trouve pas les traductions officielles des points suivants

EDGE POINTS:
TRIM EDGE POINT / TRIM POINT / TRIM EDGE
HEMMED EDGE POINT / HEM POINT /
ROUND EDGE POINT / ROUND EDGE

D'abord est-ce un point de rebord ou de bord ? Ensuite, quelle est la différence entre un trim point et un hem point ?

Help! Merci!

rognait / entourait le point du bord


Explanation:
Points des bords

Rognait le point du bord/rognait le point/rognait bord

Entourait le point du bord/ entourait le point

Le point du bord rond/ bord rond

Instead of bord, you may use la tranche, which means the edge of a blade, if it suits the context.
Please excuse me if there is any mistake in my French, as I am a native of French.

Language variant: ROUND EDGE POINT= coin (dans le cas d'un chanfrein ou d'un chanfrein arrondi)

Explanation:
Next time please ask 3 different questions.

Trim :
The moment equilibrium condition is called trim, and we are generally interested in the longitudinal stability of the aircraft about this trim condition.
