Our best estimate for the Sodick AL400P is $110,000 - $165,000. 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-al400p#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
The AL600P moves 23.62 in (600 mm) in X, 15.75 in (400 mm) in Y and 13.78 in (350 mm) in Z, against 15.78 in (400 mm), 11.81 in (300 mm) and 9.84 in (250 mm) on the AL400P. The AL600P also weighs 10,141 lb (4600 kg) against 7,496 lb (3,400 kg). Both have 5.91 in × 5.91 in (150 × 150 mm) of U/V travel.
23.62 in × 18.50 in × 9.49 in (600 × 470 × 240 mm) and 1,102.3 lb (500 kg). The part can be larger than the 400 × 300 mm travel, but only the area the wire can reach within those travels can be cut in one setup.
±25° at a plate thickness of 5.12 in (130 mm). The U and V axes have 5.91 in × 5.91 in (150 × 150 mm) of stroke. Because that stroke is fixed, check the angle you need on any section thicker than the quoted plate before quoting the job.
The two share 400 mm of X, 300 mm of Y, 250 mm of Z and a machine weight of 3,400 kg. The AL400G's table separates flushing and submerged limits, 500 kg and 350 kg, while the AL400P's table gives a single 1,102.3 lb (500 kg) figure, so ask which mode it refers to.
A floor area of 83.27 in × 98.43 in (2,115 × 2,500 mm) with 87.80 in (2,230 mm) of height, support for 7,496 lb (3,400 kg), and a 3-phase 50/60 Hz supply of 13 kVA. The table top is 39.17 in (995 mm) above the floor.
