Hello @jmweng82 

are you sure the toolpath is defined using the correct cycle :

Are you using the correct tool. It should be less critical, but we may use the pitch in the tool defintion for outputting the cycle.

These two factors will orient the post to the cycle.

But the post may be wrong, in the actual library post for Fagor, it is using the classical G84 for outputting the cycle.

So, do you use the Autodesk post from the library? Is it up to date?

If not, update, contact your post provider for fixes....

Cheers
