Spanish term
Cantidad de equipamiento
Spanish to English
Tech/Engineering
Transport / Transportation / Shipping
SPAIN. This refers to the spaces available on a truck or other transport vehicle. I've been translating "cantidad" as "quantity" so far, but I feel "quantity" doesn't work here.
"Cantidad de equipamiento (huecos) en el transporte."
"Cantidad de equipamiento (huecos) en el transporte."

I don't think "cantidad" is necessary.

number of spaces available for equipment (loading)
If I understand you correctly.
Note from asker:
| "equipment" not necessary, it's trucks (spaces for)with palleted consumer goods for distribution. It's a heading in a list/table/form. |
| Proz page and the table format reclude m from providing more context.m It's a table: Identificación del artículo entregado Código EAN (GTIN) de la unidad que se entrega. XXX LIN+1++8480000200840:EN' El producto entregado se identifica con el código EAN (GTIN) 8480000200840 Cantidad a entregar Total de unidades a entregar del artículo indicado en el segmento LIN. XXX QTY+113:400' Se deben entregar 400 unidades Elemento Descripción Cantidad de equipamiento Cantidad de equipamiento (huecos) en el transporte. XXX QTY+41E:40' Se solicitan 40 huecos |
| Sorry, I mean it precludes me from providing more context - which as you can see doesn't really help. |

Given the new context this would be the term.
