CAM for two spindle router

Hi experts

I fear that I am sailing on deep waters on a sinking ship but I give it a shot anyway 

I am building a 2 spindle wood working router

one spindle is a traditional vertical XYZ spindle and the other one is a horizontal spindle rotating around a z axis using a stepper driven rotating platform. The purpose is to be able to do casework with milling processes on both the top and the side (edges) of a panel.

I am almost done with the hardware incl router table and the two spindles.

So where do I go from here?

I intend to use a standard breakout board and mach3 but how do I get my fusion to deliver a gcode that will include the rotation of the horizontal spindle?

Any ideas?

Best regards from Scandinavia
