Herse


Explanation:
Si, dans le contexte, il ne s'agit pas de "roulette = roll stamp", mais plutôt du perçage, alors on aurait:

Herse
Instrument muni d'un quadrillage de pointes, qui, abattu sur la feuille de timbres, la marque en une seule fois
d'une grille parfaitement régulière de perforations définissant la dentelure.
