Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks / carbon fiber body repair
Italian term or phrase: Attrezzo per vuoto localizzato
Here is an instruction from the body repair manual:

Posizionare l’Attrezzo per vuoto localizzato (Pos. 16 – 002000) sopra alla Patch in carbonio e attivarlo come descritto di seguito per generare il vuoto di compattazione.

Of course, "localized vacuum tool" is the obvious literal translation, but I'm looking for a specific term, if there is one.

Thanks.

Explanation:
There probably is not a one-word term. I would just use apparatus instead of tool. Google gives numerous hits for these three terms (exact phrase) referring to patents.
