German term or phrase: Anfahrzustand
Anlageninstallation zur Pressenverlängerung:
Nach der Pressenverlängerung wird ein Anfahrzustand bzw. eine Anfahrzeit von 3 Monaten mit halber neuer Kapazitätserweiterung angenommen.

Wie kann ich diesen Begriff ("Anfahrzeit" müsste ich dann noch entsprechend anpassen) hier im Bezug auf Pressen übersetzen.

break-in period
Explanation:
I know, this goes with "...zeit" and not ...zustand, but it might give you some ideas.

With new cars, engines, etc., there may be a 'break-in' period where the operator 'schont' the engine by not running it all out, etc.

It sounds like this is what you are talking about.
