So from the image it appears your model isn't sitting flat. One circular area is touching the bed but the rest is not - it is maybe 0.00000000000001mm higher.
You could fix it in cad but a faster fix is in cura. Go to menu "preferences" "config cura" and go to "general" tab and uncheck "automatically drop models to the build plate".
Then use the move tool and click on the part and set the Z value to a negative value. Try -0.2mm to start then move that value closer to 0mm until it slices "wrong" again and go back. If you are lucky you only have to shave off 0.1mm of the bottom of the part to get it to print "correctly".
Another Cura release has arrived and in this 5.8 beta release, the focus is on improving Z seams, as well as completing support for the full Method series of printers by introducing a profile for the UltiMaker Method.
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
