Our best estimate for the Sodick VN400Q is $70,000 - $105,000. 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-vn400q#price; the request is passed to Sodick or an authorised dealer.
The VN400Q has 15.75 in (400 mm) of X, 11.81 in (300 mm) of Y and 9.06 in (230 mm) of Z, and weighs 5,952 lb (2,700 kg). The VN600Q moves to 23.62 in (600 mm), 15.75 in (400 mm) and 12.20 in (310 mm), and weighs 7,275 lb (3,300 kg). Choose by the largest plate and the tallest part you expect to cut.
Weight is limited to 1,102 lb (500 kg). The table gives no separate maximum workpiece size, so work from the 33.85 in × 27.16 in (860 × 690 mm) work tank and the 9.06 in (230 mm) Z travel, and allow room for clamps and the upper guide.
0.004 in to 0.012 in (0.10 to 0.30 mm). The thin end of that range is for small radii and narrow slots, the thick end for faster roughing on thicker plate.
Yes, it has U/V axes with 3.54 in × 3.54 in (90 × 90 mm) of travel. The listed table gives no taper angle, and the angle you can reach depends on part thickness and guide spacing, so ask Sodick for the angle at your part height.
The footprint is 79.52 in × 90.94 in × 78.35 in (2,020 × 2,310 × 1,990 mm) and the machine weighs 5,952 lb (2,700 kg). The table is 35.43 in (900 mm) above the floor, which sets the height parts are lifted to when loading.
