Tech/Engineering - Manufacturing
Dutch term or phrase: afzaklijnen
This appears in the phrase: "We hebben diverse soorten *afzaklijnen* waardoor het mogelijk is om verschillende formaten en soorten verpakkingen af te vullen".

Obviously 'lijn' can be translated as 'line', but I am unsure about the 'afzak-' element.
