SODICK SL400G WIRE EDM MACHINE

Technical Description

The Sodick SL400G is a precision wire electrical-discharge machining (EDM) system engineered for high-speed, high-performance cutting operations. This linear motor-driven machine utilizes spark erosion technology with a small-diameter brass wire as the traveling electrode to cut conductive workpieces with exceptional accuracy. The CNC-controlled system features a Smart Pulse Wire (SPW) control interface with an enhanced 19-inch multi-touch tablet-style screen, allowing operators to customize screen layouts and select between traditional or modern operational interfaces. The machine incorporates Sodick's advanced linear motor technology coupled with glass scales on the X, Y, and Z axes, ensuring precision positioning and cutting accuracy throughout the workspace. With X, Y, and Z travel capabilities of 15.75", 11.81", and 9.84" respectively, the SL400G accommodates mid-sized workpieces requiring intricate detail work. Operating at feedrates around 0.1 inches per minute, this machine excels at producing super-precise parts from difficult-to-machine materials such as hardened steel. The system comes equipped with a 10-year positioning accuracy guarantee, reflecting manufacturer confidence in its precision capabilities. Measuring 83.27" x 122.44" x 87.80" and weighing 7,385 lbs, the machine requires dedicated floor space and proper installation environment consideration. The SL400G represents an ideal solution for manufacturers requiring micro-precision EDM capabilities with reliable CNC automation for production and prototyping applications.
