Issue with welding path exported from SolidWorks Add-In

#1
Hello, how are you? This is my first time participating in this forum, I hope I’m not being a bother.
I’m taking my first steps with RoboDK (currently using the trial license) and I’m trying to use the SolidWorks Add-In to export my welds.
I’m attaching a screenshot to show my issue. In the video you can see three programs running, all exported from the same part in SolidWorks. As you can see, the robot collides with the part and performs the weld completely perpendicular to the ground, when the arm should actually move over the “walls.”
Interestingly, if the arm welds individually or only on the inside (without having to pass over the “walls”), it works correctly.
I’d like to know if this is due to a configuration mistake on my part, or if it’s a limitation/issue of the software, and whether there’s a way to solve it.

Can you send us your RoboDK project file? We can better take a look.

I have a trial version and I can't save projects.

You should be able to save the project without the curve follow project.

In any case, make sure you select the curve and also the 2 surfaces that are coincident with the curve right before setting up your weld path from SolidWorks.
