German term

Wegregelung

German to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering Manual book for an Industrial Mixer
The context:

Folgende Eingangswerte und Status können über das Bild iRam „Eingänge Schnittstelle“ überwacht werden:
– Stempel AUF – langsam
– Stempel AUF – schnell
– Stempel AB – langsam
– Stempel AB – schnell
– Druckregelung Ein
– Wegregelung ein

P-Verstärkung Positionsregler
I-Anteil Positionsregler

> In the dictionary, "Wegregelung" has a lot of meanings, such as "Position Control", "Displacement Control", "Travel Control", "Route Control", "Direction Control", etc.

In this context, I think "Position control" makes sense.
But then I found "Positionsregler".

So what is the difference between Wegregelung and Positionsregler?

Thank you so much!

@ J. Gleim Once more, you achieved to have all negative comments on your answer deleted by moderators. I doubt nevertheless that my negative evaluation was "non-linguistic" - it said that you focus on Verfahrweg, which is not the term asked by Anthony.
Moreover, you dared to make moderators delete my positive comment on K. Isaacs answer. May I ask how far you are concerned on this behalf??
I kindly suggest you find a job at some Russian communication agency instead of exercing your censorship on a democratic platform.

travel Travel is the standard English term for the movement of a machine component.
 For angle cuts, the turret arm allows the saw to travel over the center of the table, providing more support surface for the workpiece than standard swing arm saws. https://www.woodmagazine.com/review/saws/radial-arm-saws/cra...

Johannes Gleim Feb 8, 2022:
@ Anthony Can you please describe the mixing machinery, esp. in regard to the 'Stempel', 'Druckregelung' and 'Wegregelung'. All these terms are somewhat vague and offer many possibilities for interpretation. In order to provide a good answer, we should know as well as possible how these components are interconnected and function.

travel control

I would suggest using "travel control" here as I assume it is referring to a distance travelled and not a position.

On second thought I would opt for path control. It is often used in Numerical Control in machining processes.
Note from asker:
Thank you Isaac! But for machines, is it odd to use "travel"? Perhaps "movement control" is better?
Peer comment(s):

disagree Barbara Schmidt, M.A. (X) : It's the plunger's stroke.

stroke control

my take on the matter

'stroke control' obviously refers to the extent of movement, while 'position control' is about the position.

And since you're dealing with a plunger here, it seems to me that this is all about that plungser's stroke.
Note from asker:
Thank you! But is it control to the stroke pressure, or the direction of the stroke? Control to the stroke pressure seems represented in "Druckregelung"
Thank you!

routing / route guidance

The route that the moving parts of the mixer is set to take while the mixer is in operation.

Thank you!
Peer comment(s):

disagree Kim Metzger : "Route guidance" would be information about a route. Routing is fräsen in German.

travel (path) control

A "Wegeregelung" corresponds exactly to a "Wegsteuerung" (travel control), or more precisely, a "Verfahrwegsteuerung" (travel path control).

The gripper requires a minimum travel path of > 1.25 mm per jaw before it is permitted to reach a workpiece
