Под гребенками подразумеваются ребристые штуковины, при помощи которых нарезаются пилюли из предварительно заготовленной "колбаски".

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks for your suggestions. The question refers to the plates with ridged surfaces - please see this photo: http://vfl.ru/fotos/b354e08d15285884.html

Asker: So I suppose we can call those things "double-sided grooved plates", right?
