German term or phrase: Schmiedanlage
Context:

"Die Schmied- und Wickelanlagen der ABC AG machen nicht nur durch ihre technischen, sondern auch durch ihre optischen Merkmale von sich reden."

A Wickelanlage is a winding system, but I'm struggling to find the right term for Schmiedanlage. 'Smithing system' gets quite a few hits, but mostly not in the right context, and I'm not sure about 'blacksmithing system' for a modern piece of equipment either.
