flaring
Explanation:
Electronics is not really my field, but scampanatura does mean flared or flaring. For example it is mainly used when talking about clothes e.g. trousers or skirts. Also I have encountered it when talking about rims and wheel arches on a car e.g. cerchio scampanato or scampanatura dei cerchi.
