First time using the A & C on this machine, last guy purged all files when he left. I'm trying find a 5 Axis post for a 2007 Mori GV-503/5AX with MSX-805iii Mitsubishi controller. I found a post file from the last guy (attached), but X & Y are not shifting to the correct location after rotating A & C axis. The spindle would Z- into the fixture. On my previous 5ax Okuma and Haas the 5axis dynamic work offsets handled that and just worked. I've done lots of these simple 3+2 parts, so I've checked my tool orientation is correct, machine simulation is correct. Table and Trunnion rotated to the correct angle, but the X & Y are way off. When single blocking, the machine wants to Z into the table. It's adjusting the correct location after the A & C moves.

I am working for a company that is thinking about switching to Fusion from powermill. I'm wondering how to keep a live display of remaining stock for bounding 5axis turn n tilt areas. I'm looking for the view remaining material only based on stock settings that I specify. not viewing all material.

my Machine is a  5axis Hyundai KF3500/5A with Fanuc Control Series 31i-MODEL B5 Plus has a Rotary Table axis "A +30 degrees -120 degrees" and a C Rotary table axis or if somebody know a post processor that might work for my machine please advise thanks

hi is there anyway to use centre of tool rather than tip off tool in fusion for mach3 5axix maker as setting up angles ( manually )I have to do +-2.3 on a 16mm ball nose to get back to tip of tool from edge of ball nose see pictures

hi i am making a part on a multi turn/mill machine with b-axis (5axis compatible). i want to do the operation with Polar (C-axis) and not using Y. I am adding an Action process before the milling process with the command "usePolarInterpolation" everything works fine but now i want to copy and turn the process using "Add new patter" and i choose the axis and the amount. my problem is that only the first slot is performed using C-Axis but on the other slots it is using Y-Axis. Any idea why? i solved already my issue with a different approach, so i don really need a solution what i am asking is, is this a bug or am i doing it wrong? i am including the file. thanks, ilan

hi i have been working for many years with GibbsCam (15 years) and i also worked with SolidCam and other Cam Software now i want to try Fusion 360. My main machines are Multi Turn/Mill Machines like INtegrex, Okuma Multus, Spinner 65 and many other mill/turn machines with 1-2 spindles and also 1-2 turrets or milling spindle (5axis) the main issue i am having with fusion 360 is when i want to do simple turning operations. in gibbscam it is very simple you choose the profile you want to process and lead in / lead out thats it. if it is a rough operation it is doing everything from the start to the end of the selected profile (taking in account the stock that is left) and of course you can choose if to perform undercuts or not but in Fusion 360 it is very hard to get the same results. you always need to be careful what you are selecting and also need to set the od/id radius you want to perform. but why? if i select the sketch it should perform what i am doing. it also hard to set that the clearance G0 should be near to the profile. Many times the tool is coming in G1 even though it is on air so it is not recognizing correctly when it can go G0 and stop before the left stock. it may be that i am doing something wrong but i am having hard time with turning operations in fusion 360 this is for example a part that i had to try many many times until i got the result i wanted. i had to create many custom sketches especially in the axial undercut. anyone facing the same issue? any suggestions? any tutorials that explain how to work with sketches in turning operations? thank you

Hi, Having issues with chamfer tool path.  I select an open chain and all appears fine until I see the actual tool path with appears to have part of it missing.  I'm using tool orientation for a 5axis rotary.  See attachments.

Hi all, Need help in here. I'm using the standard Okuma mill post for my 5-axis machine. Is there a way to combine the initial positioning of X, Y, A, and C into a single block instead of having them in separate blocks? I want to have N11 combined in N17 (G00  X53.631  Y-18.553  A30.  C0.) Thanks !!
