Yes of course,it is useful to find the direction of force in a magnetic field of a current carrying conductor.But in cmm movement of the axis coinside the Fleming left hand rule.I don't know we can say that CMM working according to Fleming's left hand rule that is my doubt??

The above illustration is the representation of the Right-Hand Rule as it relates to the Cartesian Coordinate system applied to the CMMs own machine coordinate system. When you load in an empty program the tridedron on the screen matches this exactly. Additionally, counter-clockwise movement represents positive rotation about those axis.

Right-handed coordinates are counter-clockwise, which is what CMM's are. Y is counterclockwise from X as rotated about Z.

You both have the correct rotation. The difference is if you use the thumb or the middle finger as Z.

I was taught that the thumb goes straight up, and the index and middle are at 90 degrees. The index points to the X axis.
