Isaac Sim Welding Gun Setup

SUMMARY

This guide walks through connecting SpotWeldingGun, a single-axis spot-welding gun modelled entirely in Isaac Sim with no hardware driver behind it, to a prim in a running Isaac Sim stage.

There is no Hardware Setup for this gun as it's exclusively modelled for Nvidia Isaac Sim.

Simulation Setup

Start Isaac Sim with the bridge extension

Launch Isaac Sim with the telekinesis.isaacsim.bridge extension enabled and the timeline playing.

Connect the gun from Synapse

Finish the installation first
Install telekinesis-synapse first to run any robotics skill.
Open installation →
python
from telekinesis.synapse.tools import welding_gun

gun = welding_gun.SpotWeldingGun()
gun.connect(simulation_prim_path="/World/spot_welding_gun")
gun.disconnect()
