German term

Abfallgitter

German to English Tech/Engineering Manufacturing Bags for medical purposes
Die "Nutzenerzeugstation" ist diejenige Station an der Fügeanlage, deren Werkzeug die letztendliche Form des Nutzens vorgibt und somit eine Aufteilung der Folie in den Nutzen und das Abfallgitter vornimmt.

Dabei sei darauf hingewiesen, dass ein Abfallgitter nicht zwingend anfallen muss.

Erich Hegenberger Jan 29, 2020:
You're right, I found a related patent application that uses "web" about 100 times in this same context: https://patents.justia.com/patent/20190308384
How about "waste web" then?
philgoddard Jan 29, 2020:
You don't say whether you've done any research, but there are several suggestions in the first few Google hits, including "web" and "matrix". Have you considered these?

waste section

This is the part of the plastic film that would have been discarded and which the invention has saved for use. If you don't like "waste" I suppose "scrap" would also be possible.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Steffen Walter : Or "offcut section/portion", but not necessarily saved for use, depending on the settings of the station/unit/tool.

waste grid

Emphasis on the word "Gitter"
Peer comment(s):

neutral Erich Hegenberger : I'd agree except the picture in the patent just shows a section of plastic film (and it's described and numbered so that's clearly the bit they mean) with no sign of any grid or grate. I'd chalk it up to poor word choice on the part of the author.

Yes, I think you're right about the poor word choice too.
