Jokes on you, I'm having fun ! LOL
It is true... Most people don't like what they do. I really
enjoy it, to the point that I am a coach for a local Robotics
team.

Hi Brian,
I really love the users we have, you are 100% reading my
mind! I have been dreaming about doing this and have some
ideas. I have most all the code and I have things that you
don't know about that we can use to help you with this
project. If you want to chat about this send me a message
off list and we can talk over the phone. I am in!
Thanks

Good morning, I am looking for some
advice and ideas for a project I am brainstorming. I
have built a couple CNC machines in the past using
Mach4/ESS, so I am comfortable doing it again. Now I am
thinking about building a CNC welder for a production
beam welding job that we do. I would like to control
X,Y,&Z plus at least1 rotary axis for the
positioner, possibly up to 4 rotary axis total. Overall
travel would be approximately, 144”X, x 48”Y, x 60”Z.
My questions are;
- Has
anybody built something like this, that would have any
experiences to share?
- Is
anyone using Mach4 to run a robotic welder? Good/bad?
- If
Mach4, is there a plugin or wizard or otherwise, that
will allow me to build Gcode by jogging to points
similar to programing a robot? Like a teach function?
I recently purchased a Vectis Cobot
with UR arm, so I am familiar with robotics, but the
reach of the UR arm is limited, not to mention the cost
is too high for this job. I will keep using the Cobot
for smaller intricate parts.
?
Thank-you!
Brian Martin
