Bonjour,

Ne trouvant pas la traduction consacrée du terme "Engine Cracker", je me permets de vous demander de l'aide.
Ayant peu d'informations relatives à cette machine, je n'ai pas vraiment beaucoup d'information à vous fournir.
Il s'agit visiblement d'un broyeur électrique de moteurs, mais j'aimerais m'assurer que je ne me trompe pas et que ma traduction est juste.

Merci de votre aide et bonne journée!

engine cracker
concasseur de moteurs


Explanation:

_

« The Engine Cracker breaks whole engines into small pieces to allow easy separation of ferrous metals from more valuable aluminum. »

Dans ce contexte, le mot « concasseur » me semble plus pertinent que « broyeur ».

Cependant, le terme « concasseur à moteur » fait surtout penser à un concasseur motorisé.

Je favorise donc le terme « concasseur de moteurs ».

_



Example sentence(s):
  • The ENGINE CRACKER breaks whole engines into small pieces.
  • Le CONCASSEUR DE MOTEURS casse des moteurs entiers en petits morceaux
