SODICK AQ325L WIRE EDM MACHINES

Technical Description

The Sodick AQ325L is a high-precision CNC wire EDM machine featuring X, Y, and Z axes travels of 13.7", 9.8", and 8.6" respectively. It supports a maximum taper angle of ±20 degrees at a 3.1" length, enabling complex angled cuts. The machine is equipped with an automatic wire threading system and operates with submerged cutting for enhanced dielectric fluid control. It handles workpieces weighing up to 990 lbs and includes a work tank with inside dimensions of approximately 35.2" x 25.5". The machine measures 65" x 78.8" x 80.4" externally and weighs around 6,320 lbs, making it robust for industrial applications. Its motion axes utilize high-thrust linear motors on X and Y for smooth and highly responsive movements, improving cut accuracy and surface finish. The machine is equipped with a comprehensive dielectric filtration system and an automatic temperature control unit (chiller), ensuring stable and reliable operation. Wire diameters range from 0.006" to 0.012", with wire speed up to 9.8 inches per second, optimizing cutting speed and precision. The CNC control system (typically LN1W or LQ1W) offers advanced corner control and energy-saving circuits, contributing to efficient machining performance. Overall, the Sodick AQ325L combines compact size with powerful features suitable for fine, complex wire EDM cutting tasks in tool and mold making as well as precision manufacturing.
