français term

nettoyage du coude

français vers anglais Technique / Génie Ingénierie : industriel
From a document relating to recycling of waste meat products.

It is referring to something similar to a U-bend cleaning machine:

So "coude" is "elbow" which is synonymous with "bend" in this case. There are U-bend and T-bend machines, but a "bend machine"? It doesn't seem right.

Thank you for the link Ann.

Margaret, this is from a spreadsheet with isolated and often unrelated cells, so it is hard to give a lot of context. However, I do think I gave a reasonable amount of context for this question.

Howard, I think you should give us just a wee bit more context. This could be several things and we're not clairvoyants.

Thank you
agree chris collister : Probably requires elbow-grease....

thank you
agree Bourth (X) : Was going to say the same as Chris! I'd plump for "elbow cleaning" (an elbow is a particular type of bend), though too much of it can send a person round the bend.
