masking frame & mirror compact


Explanation:
In the context of thermoforming my guess is that the items are thermoformed products (i.e. not part of the equipment).

If this is so, the Abdeckrahmen could be a masking frame, i.e. around an instrument, TV tube, etc.
The only Googles for Spiegelkassette refer to makeup compacts with mirror, which are called mirror compacts for short.

Perhaps the meaning of ZSB can be found in the previous texts.
