English term or phrase: high pick count comingle line
Juana has been with [the recycling plant] for over seven years working from the very demanding and dirty pre-sort platforms to the clean ONP screens and finally the high pick count comingle line.

Nunca he oido un término así pero estoy que busco y no encuentro... ¿Alguna ayuda?

Explanation:
Cadena de producción de mezcla [de papel]

Parece que se trata de una planta de reciclado de papel de periódico.

Por lo que supondría que “high pick” podría refererse a “selección” o “clasificación” del papel... y “commingle” (con dos “m”) (Random House:) to mix or mingle together; combine.

Suerte.

Reference: Definition of "pick count"

Reference information:
http://composite.about.com/library/weekly/aa042897.htm
Fabric count refers to the number of warp yarns (ends) and fill yarns (picks) per inch. For example, a 24 x 22 fabric has 24 ends in every inch of fill direction and 22 picks in every inch of warp direction Note that you count warp yarns in the fill direction and fill yarns in the warp direction.

If the end and pick counts are roughly equal, the fabric is considered bidirectional, often called BID. If the pick count is very small, most of the yarns run in the warp direction, and the fabric is nearly unidirectional. I have seen some unidirectional cloths which have no fill yarns; instead, the warp yarns are held together by a thin stream of glue (picture squeezing a bottle of glue over the fabric and moving it around randomly). Unidirectioanl fabrics are sometimes called tapes, though this term is also used for narrow rolls (less than a few inches wides) of woven fabric or unidirectional prepreg (which relies on the resin to hold the fibers together).

(Note from answerer, the term "high pick count" is also searchable)
