It's been a few years since I used Fusion 360 lathe. It does provide good code for use by Mach3.
If my memory is correct,  from one of the pull downs you can access /  download load different post processors.

Just for reference  you may find the CPS in the following directory of your PC:

C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Autodesk\webdeploy\production\890691bd91ea0296c1b94572fdc7dda4ba2e48f0\Applications\CAM360\Data\Posts

You can edit them to customise, BUT, you better know what your doing. There was a video on how to edit them, about 1 hour long, that I watched and educated me on how to make changes.

Have Fun,
RICH

Use the Wizards, Lazycam, Lazyturn, Meshcam, Wrapper, Fusion 360, Dolphin / Partmaster  .....whatever gets the job done the easiest for what
for what I want to do. Last would be hand writing the code.

Try Free Cad and other programs .........................
