| | (automatic) feeder | Explanation:
(automatic) feeder
In papermaking machinery jargon, usually you “feed” the rewinder (or calandar stack, coater, or any on-line process). I would opt for this very general term if you don’t have specific details on the type of feeder (e.g. table, pinch roll, or other). From the information you have (or lack of!) the feeder could be either manual or automatic. In doubt, don't specify and ask your client.

It doesn't matter if its a corrugator (I'd understood from the context) or other type. To say that it's automatic, there needs to be some description in the process that it doesn't require manual handling of the paper tail (that's the part of the paper that gets fed).
From: http://www.jensen-barker.com/glossary_of_papermaking_terms.h...
"Tail feeding - process of threading a narrow sheet through the paper machine from forming table to the reel at full machine speed before establishing a full width sheet, using a combination of ropes, air-jets and vacuum conveyors, depending on speed and configuration of the paper machine."
There are some processes that are SLOWER than the one indicated above that can still use manual feed. This is why I caution you to speak with your client about manual of automatic. I would say your chances are 90% automatic, 10% manual.
You can get a "feel" for paper jargon in any of the following glossaries (English-English) (US and UK site terms are pretty much the same, it's an old business):

After working 10 years in a full-fledged paper production plant, I'm CERTAIN of this reply.
