it programs just as any other fanuc controlled subspindle lathe, except the main on the tsugami is +z where most regular lathes are -z on the main.This is common across all swiss types i believe.
Where it becomes more complex it the different axis combinations involved in swiss, that is not an everyday thing on a regular lathe.

Its possible if you are familiar with programing in mastercam lathe. I have made a pretty awesome post for my Star with upper left, upper right and lower right axis combinations that requires no editing. It was a chore, but anything is possible in master cam. Unfortunately it is not a one sentence reply. If you are truly interested message me.
