Italian term

enervator

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) production line
Hm...

In a really big manual translated from Italian into English (production line) I have the word only once:
This format does not have the enervator.

Format = cigarette format.

If I may kindly ask somebody to try to apply another English word, so that I could understand what it is. I do have a pdf, but there is no picture of any "enervator" in it.

Thanks :)

I think this is it


togliere le nervature = to remove bumps or curls, to flatten

snervatore o snervatrice

P.S. I forgot to mention that, in my opinion, "enervator" is a mistranslation of (macchina) snervatrice or (apparecchio) snervatore

he...he... from ITA to improper ENG and back to ITA and then to correct ENG... rather enervating!!! :-)
Note from asker:
:) :) Daniela, it goes also into Polish :). Now I am trying to imagine what a "corvette" is :). Usually I have such problems with the job once every six months, but it isn't my day today :)
