corrugator

Brow-furrowing facial muscle

A corrugator is a muscle that produces wrinkles or furrows—specifically the corrugator supercilii, the small muscle above each eye that draws the eyebrows together when you frown or squint.

In industrial contexts, a corrugator is machinery that produces corrugated cardboard or metal, creating the characteristic wavy ridges that add strength to packaging materials.
