In this paper we develop an improved three dimensional stochastic model for the lay-down of fibers on a moving conveyor belt in the production process of nonwoven materials. The model removes a drawback of a previous 3D model, that is the non-smoothness of the fiber paths. A similar result in the 2D case has been presented in [12]. The resulting equations are investigated for different limit situations and numerical simulations are presented.

Keywords: diffusion approximation., Fokker-Planck equations, stochastic processes, Fiber dynamics.
