Norwegian to English translations [PRO] Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering | | Norwegian term or phrase: kilesportrekkemaskin | | A tool or machine used in a machine shop, probably for cutting a groove or slot for a key? At this point, it's more the "trekkemaskin" part that has me stalled, but I do need the entire correct English term if you have it. |

| Grading comment Thanks. I'm picking this one on the basis of more English language corroboration for keyway + milling + machine than for key + groove + drawing + machine. I'm going to use it without the hyphen. Note the alternative "keyway cutting and milling machine" is out there as well, but with fewer Google hits. 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer |
