Italian term or phrase: manipolatore a bandiera
Sorry no other context - it's a type of welding manipulator but I can't find any references for flag manipulator (from the photo I have, it seems to have the boom on only one side of the mast).

Explanation:
Hi JulesH
The standard translatin for "a bandiera" is "cantilevered", meaning that the unit in question is physically supported at just one side (like a flag) rather than being the gantry type arrangement typically adopted for manipulators to provide the maximum freedom of movement and stability.
Cheers
