Spanish term

Mesa porta matriz

Spanish to English Other Mechanics / Mech Engineering Mechanical Press
From a description of a printing press:

"Tanto la robusta mesa portamatrices construida en Acero de 100 kg./cm.2, como el cigueñal forma un paquete soportado por columnas, el cual en el momento del compactado mantienen en una gran rigidez."

Could it be a die case (or matrix case) - anyone know when to use die and when to use matrix?
Proposed translations (English)
4 die bed
3 die box; die head
