Manteldrehmaschine

This is a turning machine for the high volume production of machined parts, predominately for motor vehicles, trucks and tanks.

I am not sure about the "Mantel" bit. Can anyone help ?
Many thanks in advance

copy lathe

Also only a guess. A copy lathe is used for repeat production of a number of identical parts, based on a master part that is reproduced by 'tracing' its outline using some sort of mechanical or electromechical system.

As 'Manteldrehmaschine' gets no google hits, it would be a good idea to ask the client what it means.
