mal-rond
French to English
Tech/Engineering
Medical: Instruments
instrument for dental or surgical use
The term is in a patent for a hand-held instrument for dental or surgical use. The full sentence is:
La queue de l'outil, dont le diamètre n'set généralement que de 2,35 mm, étant d'une rigidité limitée et pouvant présenter un "mal-rond", la pince qui assure son serage risque donc de la forcer quelque peu, ce qui provoque son arquage et l'oscillation de l'extrémité active de l'outil.
The full patent is available at: http://www.epo.org/patents/patent-information/european-paten...
The term appears in the 4th paragraph.

out-of-circular (error)
deviation from circularity - OOC - out-of-circularity
I wasn't able to find a decent definition, but see for instance http://209.85.129.104/search?q=cache:v5iSPa18aUMJ:www.welder...

Out of round:
Something that is not completely circular. For instance a wire wheel may be true in that it does not wobble from side to side, but it may have a flat spot. A condition where engine cylinder bore has greater wear at one diameter than another
The condition of brake drum when it has become distorted and is no longer perfectly round. In many cases an out of round brake drum can be salvaged by resurfacing on a brake lathe

The appropriate phrasing would be (here):
"...and it might present/have an out-of-roundness."
google examples:
"The analytical solution in Eq. (18) is valid for a perfectly round workpiece; however, a workpiece always has considerable out-of-roundness before grinding"
"One or both of those circumferential areas has an out-of-roundness, such that there occurs a press-fit along two or more preselected regions"
"The best sphere the ACPO team has made had a total out-of-roundness of 35 nanometres."
It has a maximum out-of-roundness of ± 0.03 mm.

off-centered shape
the instrument which refers to the text, is a high-speed rotating
drill, it works with the apparatus (your link), as they are very fine- shaped, sometimes it appears they are off-centered, that produces difficulty to be introduced in the dental turbine, and also
an imlproper rotation of the drill

Hi
Your sentence, I see, gives a clue as to what "mal-rond" means as it is equated with "flottement"....i.e.floating/wavering/wandering/hovering"..
[0004] La queue de l’outil, dont le diamètre n’est gé-
néralement que de 2,35 mm, étant d’une rigidité limitée
et pouvant présenter un « mal-rond », la pince qui assure
son serrage risque donc de la forcer quelque peu, ce qui
provoque sonarquageetl’oscillationdel’extrémitéactive
de l’outil. On comprendra aisément que ce flottement in-
tempestif est très nuisible à la précision d’action de la
fraise.
