Milling multiple sides of a part (post processor puts out wrong coordinates)

Hello!

 

My setup:

I am using a 6-axis robot arm with a milling spindle mounted onto it. setup.jpg

 

My Problem:

I am trying to mill multiple sides of a part without any physical reorientation. Milling the first side is no problem, but when the robot has to rotate to the second side I could recognize that it moves to a wrong location.

I have checked the post processor outputs. For me it looks like the post processor does not consider that there has been a reorientation. Therfore the outputs for the axis X,Y,Z seem to be wrong/swapped. 

 

First side:

Second side:

I have also tried to follow the instructions given at this link: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/de/support/fusion-360/learn-explore/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/DE...

 but I think this is not what i need.

 

I have added the outputs of the post processor in the attachments.

I have also added my fusion 360 project.

 

I am using a post processor for kuka robots which i have modified a little bit, so it matches with my axis configuration. (also in the attachments)

 

 

Does anyone know why i have this problem or has anyone faced a similiar problem? I am happy for any advice you could give me.
