Dutch term or phrase: kapmatrijs
"Na het hogedrukgieten van aluminium stukken worden de bramen verwijderd in een kapmatrijs. Het is daarbij belangrijk dat de kapmatrijs proper gehouden wordt om beschadiging van de gietstukken te voorkomen. Daartoe wordt bij elke cyclus de kapmatrijs schoongeblazen met een blaassysteem met ... nozzles."

(Note: The example above has nothing to do with the lease I'm currently translating.)

What particular type of mould cutter am I dealing with here? TIA for your help. Cheers, R.

This is about die casting under high pressure. (High Pressure Die Casting)
Die casting is the process of forcing (injection) molten metal under high pressure into mold cavities .

Innovative press trimming tool design can also help to reduce finishing costs.

I received this info first-hand from Pedeo, because I was interested to know the answer for sure, so asked the experts in that field.
