ESPERIL

Hola a tod@s. Tengo una lista de maquinas de una empresa de ingeniero.. con los normales toscaduras, taladros etc.. hay ESPERIL... sin mas contexto. Supongo que tambien podría ser un ESMERIL - mal en el original ( no seria la primera tonteria en este texto).
Gracias por ayuda!

unfortunately I have no context - the text as sent to me, already segmented, is from a variety of different sources, like a listings for engineering companies, with lists of machines and services offered, mixed in with proper names for good measure!
Thanks, Rupert

grinder

It could be a bench grinder or pedestal mounted. The name comes from the material used in the grinding wheel. There are refs to 'tel de esperil' - emery cloth and 'piedra esperil' - honing sharpening stone.

grinding wheel

This would be for ESMERIL, a word I come across every so often in translating lists of machinery for vehicle repair shops (bodywork)
Note from asker:
Many thanks for your answer - I went round to my local taller .. where my car is being dealt with at the moment, but they gave me a blank look when I asked - maybe my accent ;)
