Tech/Engineering - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / Pharmaceutical packaging
French term or phrase: krafteuse
This item appears in a list of equipment and machinery being used on pharmaceutical batch processing (packaging) line and so far I have drawn a blank as to a translation. It is a list of items to be checked when cleaning the work areas, etc. Clearly it is some sort of a machine containing rollers. I think it may be the labelling machine itself, but not sure as this term is hardly used throughout the document....although the process of printing the labels is! Has anyone come across this term in this context?

Explanation:
Assuming the vials are put into cardboard boxes and not simply wrapped up in a parcel, this is a distinct possibility.
