からくり "Tricks" or "innovative techniques" Explanation: The answer to the question of what is "karakuri" is in your own sample text. Thesea are "tricks" or "techniques" to reduce cost and increase efficiency. NOte that of course while the word "trick" is used, it here means "innovative techniques" , and does not mean that we are being simply deceived into thinking costs are lower. |
