pie de remache

A Mexican author says this is "una herramienta que usan los zapateros para remachar clavos". This is as much context as I have. A link to the image follows:

I've never heard of "pie de remache" but then my Spanish is from Spain (Europe), here we know it as "remachadora". I think we are talking about the same machine....

Perhaps "pie de" is a (foot) pedal-operated riveting machine (riverter)?
