Bonjour,

J'aurais besoin de votre aide pour la traduction du terme en objet dans le contexte suivant (il s'agit d'une machine de formage alimentaire):

"Forming plate:
Put the forming plate in the middle of the filling plate, in such a way that the holes correspond with the pins of the claw.
Check if the forming plate lies plane on to filling plate and claw."

Merci!

disagree  Tony M: Generally, a 'claw' is quite different in both form and function from a 'jaw' / Ah yes, but there it's the 'manipulateur' that is the 'claw', NOT the 'machoire' part; there, it is like a lobster's 'claw' ('pince')
