praelum or press beam
http://books.google.es/books?id=U8Muzx1VrbwC&pg=PA208&lpg=PA...
According to the book, the 'viga' is a 'press beam' and the 'huso' is 'stipites'.
prēlum (prae-), i, n. premo, a press. A press-beam for pressing grapes, olives, etc.; also, meton., a wine-press, oil-press (class.), Cato, R. R. 31: cola prelorum, Verg. G. 2, 242 (prela trabes sunt, quibus uva jam calcata premitur, Serv.); Vitr. 6, 9; Plin. 18, 31, 74, § 317; Dig. 19, 2, 19.

According to my technical dictionary (Guy Malgorn, Paraninfo), 'husillo' can be translated as 'lead screw' or 'spindle'.

This is from a Hungarian website.
Processing grapes into wine required a great deal of work. First they compressed the grapes in tubs, then crushed them with their bare feet. Pressing followed after that. The oldest presses in the Carpathian Basin are the so-called bálványos sajtók (presses with a large beam). Their huge {230.} beam pressed the grapes surrounded by a willow basket or by a box of plank with holes in it. In its simplest form a stone pulled down the beam, while on the more complicated ones the desired pressure could be set by a huge wooden screw. The largest versions, in many cases 8 to 10 m long and 3 m high, were used mostly on bigger estates. Large quantities of grapes could be pressed with such winepresses and they did a very thorough job.
