In RhinoCAM you can use the following techniques to get a smoother tool motion or high-speed machining motions:

1) Perform cut corner rounding
2) Arc fitting to toolpaths
3) Smooth Cut transfers
4) Radial Cut connections with Loops

All of these will smooth out the toolpaths and cut connections to reduce abrupt changes in toolpath motions. These techniques are specific to toolpath methods that is, not all of them are available in all toolpath methods.
