Seconded. And in case anyone doubts your word (perish the thought):

@Filippe I think you should post your comment as an answer, because it makes total sense to me. Well spotted!

This is legal text where a prosecutor is bringing a criminal action for smuggling of dental supplies. The text contains various conversations between the defendants where they talk about salaires, deliveries, and mention the terms "flechadora" and "amenguiver".
678 (asker) Aug 7:
ABC stands for the name of the person selling the smuggled supplies.
678 (asker) Aug 7:
Yes Charles, xxx stands for the page numbers.
Charles Davis Aug 7:
@Filippe Chapeau!
amenguiver = Amann Girrbach; flechadora =fresadora "Amann Girrbach" is a renowned manufacturer of dental milling machines (fresadoras). It would make sense phonetically.
Charles Davis Aug 7:
I presume fs. XXX means folios XXX, with XXX standing for the numbers.
Charles Davis Aug 7:
No idea, but I have a hunch that "presas" should be "fresas" and "flechadora" should be "fresadora".
This text is clearly pretty messed up. Maybe it's an automatic transcription of a recording. If you've ever watched a video with automatic subtitling on YouTube you'll know what I mean. If the audio is indistinct you can get all kinds of rubbish.
philgoddard Aug 7:
'Presas' doesn't make a lot of sense to me either.

Could we have several sentences of context, please? I don't know what 'fs. XXX' means. I assume ABC is a supplier. What does it reply?

Amann Girrbach

Considering the context, as noted by myself and others in the Discussion, I believe "amenguiver" is a phonetic spelling/transcription of "Amann Girrbach".
Note from asker:
