How to build virtual turret for a lathe machine?

Hello every body

I want to build a virtual turret for a lathe machine. When modeling only one station and one tool for my virtual lathe, every thing is ok, and the simulation is performed correctly. But when i want to add more adaptors and more tools to the turret, the simulation does not perform correctly. when i define a c-axis for my turret, it gives "can not normalize null vector" error, and when i dont define c-axis for my turret, no tool change takes place. I will be very thankful if you would please help me in this regard. Also, please give some advise on how to name my cutting tools, stations and adaptors in machine simulation environment? In the case of wrong naming, it gives "can not find tool" error!!! 

Best regards
