Hello, I tried to generate Gcode with 4 axis "4th Axis Drive Surface Machining" for a simple milling.

The Gcode calculate x,y,z,angle parameters.
I would expect that these coordinates x,y,z correspond to the position of the CNC head but in fact the gcode x,y,z correspond to the tool end coordinates

If I change the tool length, it is taken into account in the RhinoCam simulation but no effet in the gcode generation

I also tried to change the parameter "gage length (for machines with a rotary head)" but without any impact on Gcode generation.

Would you have an idea to solve this issue ?

Have you asked MecSoft tech support for help with this? They're usually pretty good at figuring out specific use-case problems like this.
