Explanation:
... or burr(s), as already suggested.
The translation is in fact opinable, as both terms are regularly in use by the sector operators. My preference goes to "flash and filaments among the pallets" as it refers to the pelletized raw material(s).
I would normally use "burr" for badly moulded parts, but here too the two terms are used interchangeably.
