Hey @Chris Annin, can you help me?
Do you think it is better use ROS or roboDK for welding task. Im planning use DXF file to make the "toolPath"
I already installed RoboDK and I know tath alows me to use DXF files but I get that the AR4 driver it is still in development but the post processor it is ok?
I can´t use it because the free liscense dont allow me to post process a toolpath so I can verify if the post processor works ok to use it in offline programming, do you test the post processor of robodk?
In the other hand I already installed ROS with the github in third party option, using the AR3 progmam it works fine but in movelt I didnt found more information of how to progam task, I have travel track and dont let me added in ROS can you help me with recommendation of what to do, or given me infromation about AR4 pos procesor in roboDK so I can buy the licesnce with trust.
Thank You.

I could not connect with the RoboDK software. Could you let me know if you are successful?
Hi Mateo,
I was wondering what type of welder you plan on using and if you've done anything different to the wiring to prevent any welding electrical noise interference. Keep us updated, i'm very interested!
@johann-voigtlander Im going to make a video with manual programming so you can see it, but I would like to weld difernt patterns so RoboDK will help me post processing but I havent pay the licensce yet because Im not sure if the Post processor or the driver works for me, that how im wondering if the post processor in robodk works fine to do offline programming
