Our best estimate for the Sodick AP1L is $80,000 - $140,000. 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-sodick-ap1l#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
Workpieces up to 25 kg, with 200 mm of X, 120 mm of Y and 200 mm of Z travel. Sodick's table does not give a table or tank size, so check how a fixture and the part would sit in the tank before assuming a part fits.
The AP30L travels 300 mm in X, 250 mm in Y and 200 mm in Z and takes a 200 kg workpiece. The AP1L has the same 200 mm of Z, but only 200 mm of X and 120 mm of Y, with a 25 kg workpiece limit and a 5 kg electrode limit.
The footprint is 1,360 × 1,920 × 2,030 mm. Add working room in front for loading parts and electrodes and behind or beside it for service access.
