Tech/Engineering - Paper / Paper Manufacturing / paper coating
Swedish term or phrase: fasspets
Document concerns blades to coat (printing) paper. Having seen in Engström that 'fas' can mean 'bevel' I'm wondering where 'fas' means 'phase' and where or if it may mean 'bevel', because it talks about bevelled or convexly rounded edges.
Fasdelen ligger således i plan med fasytan och innefattar ingångszonen och beläggningens *fasspets*.
Could anyone enlighten me as to what's meant here, please? Thanks in advance, and happy New Year to all.

Fas i betydelsen snedkant = bevel. Fasspets är förmodligen snedkantens spets.
