English term or phrase: sail
The angle of the nozzle is critical for a consistent blow-off. If elevated at too high of an angle, the lid will ***sail***. If pitched too low the end will drive into the conveyor. Small adjustments in angle, moving the pitch by 10 thousands, translates into dramatic effects on lid trajectory.

voar


Explanation:
Nesse caso, parece que usaram o verbo SAIL para indicar a habilidade da tampa sair voando (literalmente) se o angulo estiver errado. Por isso escolhi voar.
