German term

Portionierungshilfen

German to English Tech/Engineering Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.)
a study about glues indicates that "Portionierungshilfen" would make sense from a convenience point-of-view. - Obviously PORTION PACKS come to mind but I believe that there is a wider meaning here. It could include some type of gadget to assist portioning. Any ideas? TIA.

proportion metering aids

Just finished some epoxy work on my boat, and the West Marine user manual uses the key words: Proportion ("dispense the correct proportions...", metering ("metering pump" is used to get correct proportions), and ratio.

Whoops... I misunderstood this to be "proportioning" rather than "portioning".

"Metering aids" might still work, but I'd drop the "proportion".

Peer comment(s):

neutral Kcda : could it maybe be dispense the correct portion to avoid uneven surfaces (out of proportion)?
