| | tamp (down) | Explanation:
The tamping is done by tamping down a cathode paste by means of a tamping device
I believe it is about making sure that this cathode paste completely fills this space called the "grote naad"
this can be accomplished by tamping (stampen/aanstampen) the stuff, or tamping it down if you like, using some tamping device |
