      <description>&lt;P&gt;When I export this code to the HAAS it runs the tool path for the angled edges in mid air. I feel like I've tried every option in Tool Orientation but it just does the same thing! Is it something to do with the set up?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="CHAYHOBSON_0-1649251381211.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1051241i4006B8140146979F/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="CHAYHOBSON_0-1649251381211.png" alt="CHAYHOBSON_0-1649251381211.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks. I tried that and still the same result. The 4th axis vice indexes then the toolpath runs to the side of the part. It seems to be more of an issue with the Y - Axis. I've tried the et up in the centre of vice rotation and that doesn't work either. I've tried with 2d parallel and 3d face toolpaths and still the same result.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

If the center of the part/stock that is aligned with the rotating center of the 4th axis as in my image then that is how it needs to be fixed in the machine.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Are you using the HAAS DWO and TCP ?&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Which Post Processor ar you using Pre NGC or NGC&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Which Axis is the 4th axis mounted along on the Machine ?

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Yes, the WCS is replicated with the G54 in the machine. I’m using the HAAS VF-1 with the HRT160 (5th axis vice fitted) 4th axis running along the X-axis. Post processing using HAAS pre NGC 4th axis. I’m back at home now so don’t have access to the code but it’s on the file I put on the original post.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>I've put my flow toolpath back in and it's doing the same thing again so it must be something to do with that! The flow tool path was the only way I could get the internal wrap. I had tried it first with the the WCS at the centre of rotation.</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5944595"&gt;@engineguy&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;OK, so I've figured it out! I ran your toolpaths again straight out of the model you sent and this time it machined mid air! For some reason my post processor auto checks this box "rotate A-axis the opposite direction" When I uncheck this box all the toolpaths work!!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="CHAYHOBSON_0-1649336037162.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1051775i424F29419E31E25B/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="CHAYHOBSON_0-1649336037162.png" alt="CHAYHOBSON_0-1649336037162.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you look at the difference in these 2 toolpaths it looks as if the tool on the blend&amp;nbsp;doesn't get to the the top edges but it is just using the side of the tool.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="CHAYHOBSON_1-1649336301644.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1051777i9EDFBAE589DE5BDD/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="CHAYHOBSON_1-1649336301644.png" alt="CHAYHOBSON_1-1649336301644.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The Flow toolpath maintains machining using the end of the tool.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="CHAYHOBSON_2-1649336371075.png" style="width: 600px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/1051779i14F4907496EA25BE/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;amp;px=400" role="button" title="CHAYHOBSON_2-1649336371075.png" alt="CHAYHOBSON_2-1649336371075.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you so much for all your help!
