Our best estimate for the Sodick AL400G is $95,000 - $140,000. This is an estimate for a wire 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-sodick-al400g#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
It depends on the cutting mode. With flushing the limit is 600 × 470 × 240 mm and 500 kg. Submerged, it is 600 × 470 × 230 mm and 350 kg. The cut path itself must fall inside the 400 × 300 mm of X/Y travel.
The machine footprint is 2,190 × 2,590 × 2,230 mm, and the installation footprint, which includes access space, is 3,425 × 3,850 mm. The machine weighs 3,400 kg and the table sits 995 mm above the floor.
3-phase 50/60 Hz. Sodick lists 9 kVA for normal use and 13 kVA at maximum, so the supply and breaker should be sized for 13 kVA even if the machine usually draws less.
The AL600G moves 600 mm in X, 400 mm in Y and 350 mm in Z, against 400, 300 and 250 mm on the AL400G, and weighs 4,600 kg instead of 3,400 kg. It is the step up when parts outgrow the 400 × 300 mm cutting window or the 240 mm height.
