How to remove jaggedness

Hey all, 

Trying to simulate toolpaths, but it seems that I am getting a very jagged simulation. Tried smoothing relief, didn't help. I am also using 1mm ballnose, so that should be fine enough, at least it was good for previous models. Any ideas? Resolution is also the highest possible.

  • In looking at your toolpath look at the settings you have set and use, what is your tolerances in your toolpath, have you tried to set a different angle of cut, like 45 or 90 degrees?

  • I just went through a similar issue. I created a new model at max resolution but I created a model about 1/2 the size as my set dimension, I then reduced the model size again by 40%. Completely my fault.

  • I think what I've found is that 1mm ballnose is not small enough for this kind of detailing. I added a 0.25 tapered ballnose bit to the carveco tools (well modified the existing jewelry bit really) and it improved the detailing.
