In one embodiment, weld torch angle tools are provided to present an operator with the work angle and travel angle measured as taught in the weld point. The operator is presented with buttons to make small adjustments which the robot will move to in live updates to independently tune each angle. If the base plate is tilted, a workflow is provided to the operator to teach that tilt to the robot, allowing the measured angles and axes to be adjusted accordingly. This allows the operator to accurately dial in the exact angle measures specified for a given weld and to visually confirm the validity of the weld point as adjusted, to prevent any unexpected collision or robot reach issues.
