Are there any people on the forum who are versed in the 5 Axis (Multi Axis) processing in Fusion? Question: In the Flow and Swarf strategy, after postprocessing, the code with normal vectors (LN, TX, TY, TZ) is output, how to specify the movements with the rotation axes, and not the tool orientation? Or to dig a postprocessor? Stand Heidenhain530.
Solved! Go to Solution.

This is because the post processor does not know your machine kinematics, so we output 5x movements as normal vectors for the heidenhain. If you like to see machine angles instead, you have to specify your kinematics into the post as described here:

Good Morning,
Thanks for posting. Vectors are usually used when no machine configuration has been added to the post processor. To be able to have machine angles output, you need to add a machine configuration to the post, this will give the post the information needed to calculate the machine angles for your specific machine.
For information on setting up a machine configuration for your post, please visit >>this post<<
Hope this helps

Now the control program is displayed with rotation axes.
