German term or phrase: Doppelblech-Abfragestation
"§ Die im Drehmagazin vorpositionierten Trägerlagen (TL) werden mittels ABB-Roboter in eine Doppelblech-Abfragestation geführt
§ Nach erfolgter Doppelblechkontrolle wird die TL auf dem exakt positionierten Carrier
vor Presse 2 abgelegt und auf die richtige Lage hin geprüft
§ Bei Ergreifen von 2 TL werden diese an einer hierfür vorgesehenen Position abgelegt"

From a laser product specification. Any clues on what a "Doppelblech-Abfragestation" might be? TIA for any light you can shed on this.

Thank you all for your suggestions, although nothing has absolutely convinced me. I'm going to go with "double sheet detector", although I'm not sure whether a detector and an "inquiry terminal" (as Abfragestation tends to be translated) are quite the same thing. It's neat and tidy though, and reasonably accurate, so I'll take it. Thanks again for your help, everyone.

Monitoring station for double metal sheet detection


Explanation:
Automated warehouses, automated materials handling: Optimising the surface finish and the amount of oil used to protect the sheet can considerably reduce the amount that sheets or work pieces stick together. This helps to prevent double sheet alarms, a very common cause of interruptions in the operation of equipment at sheet metal machining centres or in robotised bending.
