utillaje

English translation: tools, equipment

23:46 Jan 6, 2002
Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering / Numismatics, banknote production, minting
Spanish term or phrase: utillaje
Numismatics: manufacturing of equipment used in banknote and coin production (i.e. dies, stamps, etc.)

Even if there is not a precise English word for "utillaje", is it possible to describe it by means of a 2- or 3-word phrase?

dies / numismatic tools


Explanation:
You didn't give much context, but for coinage and bill production, coins are "struck" using "dies" and bills are printed and cut. If you need to know how such die are made, they are die-cast.

If you are not specifically talking about the context you specified (i.e., numismatics), then \"tools\" would be the best choice.
