Italian term

regime massimo

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space air intake lip testing
'alimentare il motore anche nell’abbinamento di velocità nulla e regime massimo'

Above is the sentence and so far I have 'to power the engine even when zero speed is combined with maximum ....' I obviously can't use 'speed' again. Can I use 'revs' or does 'regime' have another meaning in this context?

Any help much appreciated:)
Proposed translations (English)
3 maximum speed
3 +2 peak rpm

maximum speed

it may sound strange but what they are saying is to alternate the engine between idling speed and maximum speed; probably some sort of stress or fatigue test

Thanks Oliver for your suggestion which I think is literally correct but inthis context I opted for the answer from Being Earnest.
