I saw this picture in a property advert in Tampere, Finland. Anyone know what it is? I'm guessing some sort of woodworking machine but I have no idea what!

Did some digging and I believe this is it:

Box Mangle

I’ve never heard of it before, but it appear to be a giant laundry press. Not exactly my first guess!
