German term or phrase: Gegenblaseinheit
I am translating a bid for a production line. At the label-printing station, I find this listed among the main components:

Gegenblaseinheit Peel-off Vorschubunterstützung

Later on, this is explained a bit:

Zur Unterstützung des Etiketten-Vorschubes gegen eine Anschlagkante am Applikatorkopf ist ein pneumatisches Gegenblasen notwendig.


What would this be called in English?

Thanks for your help.

Explanation:
I found this site that talks about hold down blowers for labeling, etc. Maybe it applies here.
