Spanish translation: Espumadora o Formadora de espuma

Tech/Engineering
English term or phrase: "urethane foaming" and "automated sliching equipment"
the entire sentences go like this:
1) Direct and supervise assembly man power for "urethane foaming" operation. I was not sure whether to use "espumoso" or "espumante" or what's the most used term in the commercial refrigeration field.

2) Oversee assembly operations of commercial refrigeration utilizing "automated sliching and spot weld equipment". Is sliching the same as "slicing" and if so, what's "sliching equipment" called in Spain?

This is for a CV with destination to Spain, so I need the terms used there, if possible.

Spanish translation:Espumadora o Formadora de espuma
Explanation:
Urethane Foaming Operation = Operación de Espumado de Uretano. Sliching, I think is a typo. Automated Slicing Equipment = Máquina Rebanadora o Troceadora Automática. Spot Weld Equipmente = Equipo Automático de Soldadura por Puntos (nota: Normalmente es soldadura eléctrica por puntos). Hope it helps.
