English term or phrase: slitter
The back of the machine is where the material exists and feeds through to a panel cutter or slitter.

it's a text on quilting machines. panel cutter is "cortadora de paneles". slitter must be something similar but i can't find an appropriate word.

Thank you!!

Explanation:
Beigbeder Atieza. Diccionario politécnico de las lenguas española e inglesa. Díaz de Santos.

All words of "slitter" from this source included except "pico" which has (minas) "mines" next to it in parentheses.

Personally I like "cortadora en tiras" but it is your choice.
