I don’t know about fusion but you can simply make the c axis an axis. We don’t know or care what your doing with the motors. The issue is we do not have the tools to make a Cartesian coordinate system from the c and x axis. We know how to do it we just have not done it because not enough people need it.

You may be able to get away with using one of the fanuc post processors to utilize the milling capabilities.

If you're using a lathe, try the fanuc turning.
