    Need Advice - How to program on mill/turn center

    Good morning all.
    How would you program the following worm gear on a mill/turn center? We have a Mori Sieki NL3000 and we use Fusion 360 for our CAM software, but as far as I can tell Fusion doesn't have the capability to program this, since it would need multiple starts with a 4mm insert. Any ideas from anyone?
