French term

ouverture de reprise

French to English Tech/Engineering Agriculture
la technique du plancher vibrant consiste en des tôles vibrantes supportées par des ressorts, jointes bout à bout pour constituer des travées, installées sur des pentes inclinées en direction d'ouvertures de reprise.

What are these ouvertures and what does reprise mean in this context?

Any ideas or explanations welcome.

The system is for discharging/extracting grained and powder material from a silo or from ships.

It would be very helpful if you told us what purpose this equipment serves.

bagging chute

In the absence of an essential piece of context, I'm guessing that the machinery described in the source text is a grader for fruit or vegetables (maybe potatoes).

On that basis I suggest 'bagging chute'.
