French term
Signaler TOUT choc au service qualité.
French to English
Tech/Engineering
Engineering: Industrial
Contexte: pièces réalisées en fibres de carbone
Je ne peux pas employer le terme "impact" car un choc n'est pas forcément suivi d'un impact visible.
Ce serait plus au sens de coup donné par exemple en heurtant la pièce.
Merci pour vos suggestions.

ALL/ANY impacts must be notified to the Quality Department
Yes, you CAN use 'impact', because it doesn't necessarily have to mean 'the VISIBLE TRACE OF an impact'
In EN, we would use the word 'impact' to imply any kind of shock stress in just the way you describe
