So I'm having some trouble programing a part in mastercam the part needs the sides to be swarfed and I would like to do it on the rotary playback, We have a Thermwood model 90 and the rotary is the A axis, I sent the toolpath to output format 4 axis but when I post it it post with b axis not A. any help would be greatly appreciated.

The thermwood model 90 Joe does not have a "A" axis that is the problem. I have a customer I program there model 90 all the time and have done allot of swarf paths on.
You should have gotton the proven thermwood 5axi post from thermwood works great.
