5AX A Axis rotation off by 90 Degrees

Hello world, 

This is likely operator error. I will do my best to show what I have going on, but Can't share the actual files I am using. I can make a simplified version if someone needs a file . 

 

Machine is a Haas VF-2SS with TRT160 

Fusion WCS has TRT positioned at A-90 so I can probe a feature from previous operation. 

Any post with a non setup WCS (tool orientation) then moves incorrectly by this -90 from the original WCS. 

Picture of the WCS below as well as well as a tool path setup and how it actually orients in the machine.

NC. snippet. A180 would be correct position

Based on your first image, I assume you are using the correct Machine Configuration and related post processor, right?

I know what that part is, so I understand that you may be unwilling to publicly share it. Would you be able to share it privately?
Email it to me: [email protected].

Please link to this thread and specify which toolpath is posting out like this.

 

Does this only happen when you have one toolpath selected for posting, or is this a toolpath in a whole collection of toolpaths?

Addressed via email. Basic explanation is to use Machine Configurations and the appropriate machine/post combination.
