SODICK AG600L WIRE EDM MACHINES

Technical Description

The Sodick AG600L is a precision CNC wire electrical discharge machine engineered for high-accuracy cutting of complex geometries in hardened materials. This 2012-model machine features a Sodick LN2W CNC control system with linear motor drive technology, eliminating traditional ball screws for non-contact, vibration-free motion with superior positioning accuracy and no backlash. The machine maintains compact dimensions of 96.9" × 103.1" × 94.1" while weighing 10,890 lbs, making it suitable for precision manufacturing environments. The AG600L accommodates workpieces up to 2,240 lbs with an internal tank measuring 41.34" × 27.59". Its travel capabilities include X/Y/Z axis movement of 600mm × 400mm × 350mm, supplemented by independent U and V axes for advanced taper cutting up to ±25 degrees. The machine utilizes wire diameters ranging from 0.002" to 0.012" at speeds up to 16.54 inches per second, delivering exceptional surface finishes and circular accuracy of 0.82 micrometers. Equipped with automatic wire threading technology, the AG600L streamlines operation and improves wire straightness repeatability, particularly at larger Z heights. The fully submerged work tank design, combined with an energy-saving discharge circuit and dielectric chiller system with 211-gallon capacity, ensures stable thermal conditions and precise machining performance. The machine operates on 200/220-volt, 3-phase power and includes ceramic work stand components for enhanced rigidity and electrical insulation, making it ideal for manufacturing dies, molds, and precision components.
