Italian term

cancello segna-passo

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Automation & Robotics
I also found this term referred to as "segnapasso" and also under "segnapassi". Here is the sentence:

È presente una pila incastrata nel cancello segna-passo.

My guess is the term is translated as "gate passmarker" or "gate marker". ?
Proposed translations (English)
4 metering gate
3 -1 walkway gate

Hmm I should add that this is for a palletizing machine, and the gate (and its segnapasso) is meant to let pallets through, in order to form products. If that helps!

Note from asker:
Hello and thank you for this answer! Though it doesnt' fit the context of a palletizer, I would agree that "walkway gate" would work well if it were a passage for people. Perhaps this can be added to the glossary somehow, with this specific context... I'm not sure how though...
Peer comment(s):

disagree Cedric Randolph : Impossible in a palletizer, especially when a stack of pallets is stuck in it.

I didn't realize it was a palletizer... "Hmm I should add that this is for a palletizing machine"
