Our best estimate for the Sodick K3BL is $100,000 - $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-k3bl#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
The K3HS has 300 mm of X, 400 mm of Y and 300 mm of Z with a 480 × 790 mm table. The K3BL has the same X and Z but only 200 mm of Y, on a 600 × 300 mm table that is longer across the machine. Both carry 300 kg.
Long, narrow parts. The 600 × 300 mm table and the 300 mm X stroke suit plates and die sections laid across the machine, up to 300 kg. Parts deeper than the 200 mm Y stroke have to be reset to reach every hole.
