English translation:machine-tool assemblies / machine-tool installations
Explanation:
"Usinage" = "machining," which embraces a whole flock of activities.

The "gabarits" are the jigs, templates, and/or gauges that are used in conjunction with the machine tools (lathes, milling machines, drills, stamps, grinders, and/or saws), which are operated via the control instruments.

Sounds like what you have here is an order for NC (numerically controlled) machine tools and their accessories.

Hope this helps,
HC
