unloading station


Explanation:
Tempted as we might be to translate the German "Station" differently, this really does seem to be the most commonly-used term when cross-referenced with "assembly line" or "conveyor belt" on Google.

There are also several cases of "unloading dock" -- which had been my first impulse.
