Yes, I'm using a machine configuration file like the example you sent me

Yes, I used the post processor that you shared and it posts out with G68.2, my machine can't use G68.2, has to use the letter "A" for the axis designation, not G68.2

Yes, I made sure that my WCS is on the center of rotation, if it wasn't the toolpath wouldn't look right in simulation

 

So, because my machine can not use G68.2, I posted the code through a different fanuc post to try it. I have used the Fanuc A-axis inverse time and A-axis processor in the past with no issues. But when I posted the code out and put the file in the machine and ran it, the machine does fine until after the G43 line, then instead of following what it should do in simulation the 4th axis just takes off spinning like i'm running the file in a lathe. Thats the reason why I'm trying to use the generic fanuc post and change it from using G68.2 to using the letter "A" designation for the 4th axis. There aren't any other options for the machines that can't use G68.2 that I can find.
