Please bear with me, as I only started using Fusion360 yesterday and I am not familiar with how things work with it yet. My impression is that the CAM produces an NCI file that the post processor converts into an NC file the machine can use. My concern right now is just in the CAM part, where you define a machine. I'll worry about the post-processor later to prevent my brain exploding. That I suck at explaining things doesn't help, I'm sure, and I am appreciative of any help and patience. 

 

I have a screenshot of what I am talking about:

defining a machine's kinematics within the CAMdefining a machine's kinematics within the CAM

as compared to this:

a better organized kinematics treea better organized kinematics tree

I believe the two different kinematic trees shown makes a difference, but I am not sure.

The b-axis has two non-zero vector components [0,-1,1] and I want to make sure that is correct as well. 

Here is a video of the weird kinematics: https://youtu.be/nYntzIhpIZM

Thank you
