Spanish term

promolienda

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Terminology
This showed up in an inventory list of items and it stands by itself. One of those horrible examples of "no context" that so haunts us all.

The full phrase is "PROMOLIENDA MOLINO 3"

In lieu of context I can tell you the inventory is for a Venezuelan cement manufacturing entity. Other items on the list include "REPOTENCIACION TURBINA", "POLVILLO HORNO 6", "PALETIZADORA GRIS", and "CAÑONES DE AIRE MOL 5,6,Y 8" so you see, not much help there. Can't find any meaningful references to this in the usual resources, I looked outside the box also, (and under it); No joy. It is either an obscure and regional industry term or "common" knowledge that the Universe conspired to keep from me.

Thanks for the help!

Keep on checking, but from what I can find it should be a typo because it appears that "promolienda" does not exist. But in the context of cement manufacturing, "premolienda" and "pregrinder / pregrinding mill" definitely do exist.
Note from asker:
Hola Henry, eso sería "premolienda" yo estoy pensando que quizás no sea lo mismo que "promolienda". Quisiera confirmar que no sea tan solo un typo. I did find it, I'm just not convinced—yet. Thanks for the help!

agree Lydia De Jorge : I agree, it has to be a typo.
