Hi Cesar,
Activating an ArcTech welder will require some integration on your end.
To do so, you will need to modify the post-processor you are using. Find information about post-processor modification here://m.sinclairbody.com/doc/en/Post-Processor...l#EditPost
One of my recommendations would be to take a look at the FANUC R30iA post-processor as it already includes integration for a welding gun.
Take a look at the "RunCode" section of the pros-processor (ctrl-f should help you find the right section).
With this post-processor, you can activate the welding gun at a specific time in the program by using the "Program events" of you "Curve follow project".
"Path start" -> Enter "ArcStart"
"Path finish" -> Enter "ArcEnd"
Some modifications could also be needed in the header of the .src file.
Do you have an example code using the welding gun? That would be a good starting point for this integration.
Have a great day.
Jeremy
