planers
/ˈpleɪnərz/

noun
Cepilladora
A large machine tool in which the workpiece is traversed linearly (by means of a reciprocating bed) beneath a single-point cutting tool. (Analogous to a shaper but larger and with the workpiece moving instead of the tool.) Planers can generate various shapes, but were most especially used to generate large, accurate flat surfaces. The planer is nowadays obsolescent, having been mostly superseded by large milling machines.
En la antigua fábrica, varias cepilladoras permanecían inactivas, reliquias de una época en que las fresadoras no eran lo suficientemente potentes para dar forma a piezas de metal tan grandes.
