Gerätebau

Deutsch > Englisch Technik Engineering?
Any ideas what the equivalent is in English?

It comes up in a list in a CV, so no context (Sorry). Seems to be some field of engineering (plant construction?)

NO GUESSES PLEASE (I wouldn't be able to tell a guess from the real thing)!

Ernst, Laixicon & Eurodicatom have no entries.
LEO gives 'toolmaking'
Dicdata gives 'apparatus engineering' (which is closer to the related 'Apparatebau')
Linguadict gives 'apparatus engineering, equipment engineering, and construction engineering'
