hengerezés

Hengerezés is a Hungarian term that generally refers to the process of rolling or passing something through rollers. This can be applied in various contexts, from industrial manufacturing to everyday activities.

In manufacturing, hengerezés often describes the process of shaping or processing materials using a set of rollers. This might include cold rolling or hot rolling of metal sheets, where the metal is passed between heavy rollers to reduce its thickness, improve its surface finish, or achieve a desired shape. Similarly, in the paper industry, paper is often passed through rollers to flatten it, impart a smooth surface, or apply coatings. In the textile industry, fabrics might undergo hengerezés to press out moisture, smooth wrinkles, or create specific textures.

Beyond industrial applications, the term can also be used more broadly. For instance, in gardening, a lawn roller might be used to flatten uneven ground or press down newly sown seeds, a process that could be described as hengerezés. In a more figurative sense, it might imply a smoothing over or a superficial treatment, though this is less common. The specific meaning of hengerezés is highly dependent on the context in which it is used.
