Arc sweep artifacts?

I'm creating a pulley which requires a slight arc to for the endless drive belt. I've created the arc but when I sweep it along the round rail the arc looks to be made up of 4 straight lines instead of one curved surface. Is this just an artifact of the way MOI renders the sweep or have I missed something?

Just a display artefact for speed the process of display the view!
Internal Geometry is perfect!
You can change the display by Options / View / Mesh Parameters - Add Detail to inflections

In Options > View > Mesh angle: set it up to something like 3.

Wow, that helped a lot.
Never thought was a graphical artifacts but a program node within itself.
Glad to sorted that one out.

its easer to figure out the final product this way.
