![]() As you may know, this can be found within many of the toolpaths within Fusion 360. Let’s now look at the Tool Orientation functionality. This will make this a simpler and more intuitive process. A lot of people tend to use either the centre of the stock or a corner as their reference. This means your toolpaths will be shifted by the distance separating your G54 and your WCS. If the Work Coordinate System and your G54 on your machine do not match up, when you output your toolpaths to the machine, the machine will be referencing your strategies to a different coordinate system. This MUST match your reference point on the machine, such as G54, G55 etc. The Work Coordinate System is what you must define in your setup. In the first part, we’ll look at Work Coordinate Systems, or WCS for you Fusion 360 fans. I will separate this blog into two halves. A common question we get asked about Fusion 360 is “What is the difference between creating a new work coordinate system and defining a tool orientation for a positional axis-move?”.
