Spanish term

prensa

Spanish to English Other Mechanics / Mech Engineering
This is in the context of a tin can manufacturing plant.

There are lots of references for "prensa" in the glossaries but, being an illiterate in machinery matters, I'm at a loss as to which applies here.

There's no context in the text itself, but I assume they are talking about machines for the actual shaping of cans.

shaping machine or press

if you are talking about a tin can extrusion process or the like.

Need to see some context! (the sentence or surrounding paragraph, etc.) to be sure.
