- How to program Fusion 360 for 4th Axis CAM using a Tormach PCNC 1100 and 4th axis!
Fusion 360 only supports 3+1 4th axis toolpaths (indexing) but simultaneous 4th axis is coming this year!

This is what You get from a teacher who loves what he is doing.!
John, you nailed it! This is the perfect pace and amount of explanation to actually 'teach' instead of just showing. Keep it up!!!
Your videos on 4th axis have been unbelievably helpful, thank you! Great, relevant examples, and you are very thorough in your explanations! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for making this! I just integrated a 4th axis (using a horizontal/vertical rotary index table). Planning to make gears. The process you showed will make it doable. Glad to see Fusion has good tricks to work with it. Looking forward to "simultaneous" when it's in there. (Maybe it is by now?)
What an incredible video, so helpful, thank you!!!
AWESOME!!! Thanks!!! been trying to figure this out for hours!!!
"Create Derived Operation" fantastic tip John. I was doing this the hard way.
Five Stars. Thanks for the detailed and helpful instruction.
I don't have a tormach but from this video I was able to get the 4th axis working. Thanks!!!!
I see that Buffalo Trace bottle! Great stuff as usual Mr Saunders.
Great video, John! Thank you!
Great video,very informative! Thank you.
Just Posted my first 4-Axis Gcode from Inventor HSM Thanks to your video.
Super cool video!
Thanks for the info on getting Fusion to do 3+1 axis. I haven't had a reason to dive that far in yet. I have had to fight with it to get an origin to point the right way, much like you did. To this day, strange things happen when I set origins.
Awesome video, thanks!
Does the WCS origin have to be on the axis of symmetry? At least for me, when I try to position the origin at one corner, Mach gets confused.
@12:22 Is that a bottle of buffalo trace I see in the background? great video and good taste in whiskey.
Any news on that simultaneous 4th axis?
@NYC CNC - great video! Thanks for doing this. However, the link to your post processor is dead. Any chance you could share it out again? Having trouble getting my tormach to play nice post processing 4th axis and was hoping to try yours. Thanks!
I always learn awesome CAM techniques from your videos. There are some buzzing and popping issues with the audio in the beginning that I also noticed in another vid.
Hello!
I have a question for you, is the 3+1 a Fusion 360 Pro feature?
Awesome channel by the way!
John, Awesome video, as usual!
I just downloaded the new PP from your link, and compared it to the one that I have been using to run F360/4th axis on my Tormach. The new Post is pretty similar to mine (which was downloaded from Tormach & edited per several online posts about supporting 4th axis for Mach3). The 2 changes suggested by the online posts are made identically. Interesting that the new post is based on the Haas PP.
One change that I made on my own was to comment out a line that produced a G30 command every time the "A" axis was rotated. This was causing the spindle to return to home position every 30 seconds or so on my design - which was really slowing things down. Commenting out the line resulted in the spindle only going to the retract position between A axis moves - much faster :)
Interestingly, the function that I edited (called "onSection") is completely different in the new Post - much longer, more complex, with a new section titled "retract to safe plane". I have not yet tried the new PP, but will this afternoon - will see how it behaves.
FYI - here's a link to a pic of the 4th axis part that I completed earlier this week:

Thanks again for the great video - Gerry Kmack
Your need some (more) coffee, that circular pattern for the spot drill is 90°, you need to turn off equal spacing and go 3 at 45°. With equal spacing you had to divide the 3 points into 135° so you end up with 45° you wanted. Hence when you had 360° and 6 points you get 60° and didn't cut the first groove twice ;)
I've been having a go at playing with this stuff on shopbot software. Im not sure why, but I've been having issues with the zero point not being where I want it in simulation. Indexer is in pieces for now so no telling what it will actually do
im using 4 axis cnc plasma i want cut shapes on pipe and tube using fussion
So, did the 4th come out? I have a new fusion 360, doesn't seem to have it there.
3D Adaptive would have taken care of that stock issue with the "Rest Machining" option on and "From Setup Stock" selected. ;-)
Awesome! I was wondering how to get the 4th axis to work without using work offsets. I'll need to look into that post and see if it will work with Mach3. Thanks!
+Ronald Thompson Mach 3 4th axis definitely works. There are plenty of posts on the forum about it.
+Scott Moyse Thanks!
good works can i get the 3d model please
thank so much John
Cant find the 4th axis option for my milling setup, what am I missing? Thanks!
I need more time with fusion. I'm trying to use a 3d stl on a 4th axis haas to make a shifter head for a ford. I'm new to the program, cutting too many corners. Not doing my research. I'll figure it out. Thank you.
had me worried there had to check the calendar you know its only Wednesday don't you :D
I challenge thee to engrave that logo on a cylindrical surface instead of a flat.
:)
Thanks,
John
+NYC CNC :)
+John Bazaar would love to see that :)
hey i just emailed you please check it
