Our best estimate for the Sodick AL800G is $250,000 - $360,000. 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-al800g#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
With flushing, 1,250 × 1,020 × 500 mm and up to 3,000 kg. The cut path has to fall within 800 mm of X and 600 mm of Y. Sodick's table does not give a submerged limit for this model, so confirm it if you plan to cut submerged.
Both move 800 mm in X and 600 mm in Y. The AL800G has 500 mm of Z against 250 mm on the AL800P, and weighs 6,000 kg against 5750 kg. Pick the AL800G whenever parts are thicker than the 240 mm the AL800P accepts.
The AL800G's U and V axes move 200 × 200 mm, against 150 × 150 mm on the AL600G. Both quote ± 25° at 130 mm thickness, so the extra stroke matters mostly when holding an angle on parts taller than that, which the 500 mm of Z allows.
0.1 to 0.3 mm, with 3 to 23 N of tension and a wire feed rate of up to 420 mm/sec. The AL400G lists 0.05 mm at the fine end, so very small radii are better cut on that machine.
The machine measures 3,395 × 3,640 × 2,780 mm and weighs 6,000 kg. The installation footprint, including working access, is 4,675 × 5,050 mm. The table top is 995 mm above the floor.
