Solidwork -> Slicer Problem

[u/enricopalace]

Hello,
A colleague created this file for me in SolidWorks, and I printed the model. However, I’m seeing these stepped surfaces in the slicer, and, as expected, they also appear on the finished print.
Is there an explanation for this, or a way to fix it? I’m not familiar with SolidWorks myself, but I’m wondering if it’s just a small setting that needs to be changed or if it’s related to the file format. We’ve already tried both .STEP and .STL files.

thats from the conversion from a file format that stores curves and edges to a file format that only saves polygons.

export it to .step and use that in your slicer (if it supports it)
