Tech/Engineering - Paper / Paper Manufacturing / report on company

English term or phrase: board calliper

Text:

The Corrugated Board division manufactures machinery for the production and printing of corrugated boards. A corrugated board is created by gluing a corrugated piece to a flat face, or between two flat faces. In this division, the company provides flexo printers, corrugators, flatbed die cutters and **board callipers**.

Man könnte das wörtlich als Kartonzange übersetzen, doch ich habe den leisen Verdacht, dass es einen anderen Namen hat. Jede Hilfe willkommen.
TIA
