Functional specs for paint containers
Term appears in functional specifications for a new paint container. In the section called "cycle d'utilisation du produit", there's a description of a sub-phase of the manufacturing process involving empty paint containers on a conveyor. "Les contenants vides sont livrés sur les palettes. Un dépalettiseur automatique amène les contenants sur le convoyeur. Pour éviter la poussière, les contenants se déplacent à l'envers au niveau du plafond. Une machine automatique ou une ***chute radiale*** fait descendre les contenants au niveau des tables d'encannage..."

radial chute
I imagine the chute like those used for grain. The paint cans are up at ceiling level traveling on some kind of conveyor, and when they arrive at the (central) radial chute, they drop down to a lower level. Like on a slide. Think of the game "chutes and ladders", the word chute is a kind of slide, and the word is used in English.
