Our best estimate for the Sodick AL35G is $150,000 - $250,000. This is an estimate for a sinker edm (ram edm) in this class, not a quote from Sodick; configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/sodick-al35g-sinker#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
No. The AL35G is not in Sodick's current lineup and may be an older model. Its table could not be checked against Sodick's documents, so confirm the listed figures (350 × 250 × 300 mm of travel, a 600 mm × 400 mm table and a 400 kg workpiece limit) on the machine itself before buying.
Both list a 600 × 400 mm table. The AL40G+ travels 15.75 in (400 mm) in X, 11.81 in (300 mm) in Y and 10.63 in (270 mm) in Z and weighs 9,039 lb (4,100 kg). The AL35G lists 350 × 250 × 300 mm and approx. 3,500 kg, so it is shorter in X and Y but has more Z stroke.
The listed table gives an SP digital generator rated 50 A peak, a Sodick LN2W CNC with K-SMC adaptive control, and dielectric oil. On a used machine, check that the control and generator fitted match these rows and that the oil system and filters are in working order.
The listed table gives Ra 0.1 µm under fine-finish conditions. A figure like this depends on the electrode material, the area being finished and the finishing schedule, so ask for a sample burn on your own material before relying on it.
