Our best estimate for the Sodick AP450L is $220,000 - $310,000. 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-ap450l#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
The AP450L has 17.72 in (450 mm) of X, 11.81 in (300 mm) of Y and 5.91 in (150 mm) of Z, a 220.5 lb (100 kg) workpiece limit and a machine weight of 14,109.6 lb (6,400 kg). The AP250L is listed with 9.84 in (250 mm), 5.91 in (150 mm) and 4.72 in (120 mm) of travel and 8,223 lb (3,730 kg) of machine weight.
Z travel is 5.91 in (150 mm), which sets the practical ceiling on plate thickness. For taller blocks the AL400P, with 9.84 in (250 mm) of Z, is the closer fit; the AP450L suits thinner parts within 220.5 lb (100 kg).
The machine measures 90.16 in × 70.08 in × 85.43 in (2,290 × 1,780 × 2,170 mm) and weighs 14,109.6 lb (6,400 kg), with the table 43.31 in (1,100 mm) above the floor. Sodick's table does not list a power requirement, so ask for it before preparing the site.
