bow, longitudinal curvature
Or more specifically, 'coil set' or 'coil curvature' for 'coil sabel'.
Presumably 'sabel' here comes from the curved shape of a 'sabel' (sabre). FWIW, 'Säbelbein' means 'bow-leg' in German.

Comment: "I actually opted to simplify your response to "bow", as this was for a general readership on a website, versus a technical manual or such. Thanks again!!!"

Ik zie nog een mogelijkheid: de plaat die wordt bewerkt, komt van een rol af en / of wordt na bewerking opgerold. De af- of oprolkrachten manifesteren zich in een lichte golfbeweging in de "vlakke" plaat die wordt bewerkt.
Coil is dan hier een werkwoord: oprollen
Staat het woord coil trouwens in de Nederlandse zin, of was je al aan het vertalen?

Comment: "Thank you very much for your time on this, Henk. I opted to go with "bow" as suggested by Kenneth Cox, though "wave" was certainly a well-thought recommendation. For what it's worth, the word "coil" was in fact in the source Dutch text. Silly Dutch folk peppering with English words! ;-) Best wishes in the New Year!"
