  Hello jinson
  
  Let me look into this and I will get back to you.
  
  In the mean time can you try exporting again after switching between Teigha and Autodesk RealDWG, and see if it helps?

  Hello jinson
  
  Are you opening the SpaceClaim exported file in any CAM software? What happens if the DXF file is again imported back in SpaceClaim, do you see the circles as spline? (This will clear up the possibility of the issue being with the translators on the CAM software).

  hi Charudatta Bandgar
  
  Yes, exported file to any CAM software
  
  when open back still a circle.
  
  i have try changing the rendering quality to high ---then the circle will definitely look smooth
  
  Have try autocad, seem no problem when exported to any of CAM software

  When you open the SC exported dxf file in AUTOCAD, the circles come as circles and no issue is faced. Whereas when imported into CAM software, it is getting imported as a spline. Did I understand correctly? If this is correct, I think this is an issue with the CAM software translation, and I would suggest getting in touch with their support. I will still confirm this with the experts and will let you know.

  After you have increased the rendering quality, did the CAM software import, imported as a circle? Can you change the Display>graphics>wireframe and try again and see if that helps?

  hi Charudatta Bandgar
  
  have tried below method, the problem still same
  - after change rendering quality still same as picture above (straight line circle)
  - change to wireframe
  - use 2D and 3D method

  Hello jinson
  
  Based on the information you have given, I think the issue is with the CAM software translation and not SpaceClaim export. I would suggest you get in touch with the CAM software support and see if it is that issue.
