Our best estimate for the Sodick AQ1200L is $450,000 - $620,000. 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-aq1200l#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
X travel is 47.24 in (1,200 mm), Y 31.50 in (800 mm) and Z 15.75 in (400 mm), inside a 71.81 in × 55.12 in (1,824 × 1,400 mm) work tank. The table is rated for workpieces up to 8,818 lb (4,000 kg).
When parts are taller than 15.75 in (400 mm) or larger than the AQ1200L's X/Y travel. The AQ1500L has 59.05 in (1,500 mm) of X, 39.37 in (1,000 mm) of Y and 23.62 in (600 mm) of Z and weighs 33,069 lb (15,000 kg), against 24,251 lb (11,000 kg) for the AQ1200L.
47.24 in (1,200 mm) from the floor. Plan on crane loading for heavy plates and check whether operators need a step or platform to reach across the tank during setup.
Wire diameter is 0.006 in - 0.012 in (0.15 - 0.30 mm). U/V travel is listed as 48.03 in × 32.28 in (1,220 × 820 mm), but the table gives no maximum taper angle; get the angle at your plate thickness from Sodick before quoting taper work.
The machine measures 161.42 in × 152.36 in × 98.03 in (4,100 × 3,870 × 2,490 mm) and weighs 24,251 lb (11,000 kg). Sodick's table has no power rating, so obtain the electrical requirement and foundation guidance from Sodick.
