Swedish term or phrase: böcklängd
Hello

This is the only word in a specification for a folding press (bending press) for metal plates.

And the measurement is 6000 mm

But what do you call this part of the press in English?

Is it the 'die' ?

Thanks

Explanation:
My guess is that it should be 'bocklängd' in Swedish, which makes my suggestion fairly sensible
