Merci beaucoup Je ne peux pas attribuer de note
Pour "profile", le terme semble bien être "profilés" et non "profils".

@ Patrick Luckily in EN we have that concision in being able to simply leave out the 'machine' — e.g. 'printer' instead of 'printing machine' (and no-one confuses it with 'a person who prints'); FR often gets round this by using '-euse' instead of '-eur'.
However, it is clear from the context this has to be referring to a machine — not least, because it says 'CNC'; even though it is of course ultimately the cutting tool that is moved under digital control, we don't refer to it on that level, so 'CNC' cutter (especially with what follows) unequivocally refers to the whole machine.

@Tony: I'm not sure, they say "cutter", not "cutting machine"

Tony M Sep 16, 2020:
@ Patrick 'cutter' here refers to the machine doing it, not the actual cutting tool used.
