Just for accuracy:

To be precise the origin of the word is "viscera" which is Latin (and thus a loan word in English) for "intestines, bowels, guts".

From this noun comes the verb "eviscero" using the prefix "e-" which can be translated as "out". So literally translated it means "take guts out", so "disembowel, paunch, draw, gut".

The suffix "-ator" means "a person or thing that does...". So an "eviscerator" is a person or thing that disembowels.
