Dutch term or phrase: opgieten (van motoren en..)
" .. uitlijnen en **opgieten** van motoren, reduktiekasten en andere machines behoren tot het kunnen van onze mensen." Het betreft een brochure van een Belgisch bedrijf dat zich bezighoudt met scheepsmechanica, -reparatie en -afbouw. Net als bij mijn vorige vraag krijg ik genoeg hits, maar geen duidelijk beeld van wat het betekent. Ik vermoed iets dergelijks als "het bedekken/spuiten met (een vloeistof?)". Weet iemand of dat klopt en wat de juiste vertaling dan is. To spray/protect/cover?

Thanks for your very complete chain of thought! It helped me to get to my final answer. I have decided that the correct term for pouring resin to stabilize an engine (opgieten) is not 'grouting' but 'chocking (an engine)'.

Reference information:
I asked Claude.ai the following question:

which term would be a correct way of referring to pouring resin into an engine (or a part thereof) to stabilize it? chocking? or grouting?

it answered:

The correct term for pouring resin into an engine or engine component to stabilize it is "potting." Potting is a process where a liquid compound, such as epoxy or resin, is poured into a cavity or around a component to provide support, insulation, or protection from vibration and shock.

"Chocking" refers to the use of wedges or blocks to prevent movement or shifting of heavy objects, such as machinery or vehicles.

"Grouting" is a term used in construction and masonry, which involves filling gaps or spaces between tiles, stones, or other building materials with a fine cement or mortar mixture.

So, when discussing the process of stabilizing an engine or its parts using resin, the appropriate term to use is "potting."



see e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potting_(electronics)

From the above I deduce that if your parts are electronics related, perhaps "potting" would be a better term
