SODICK VL400Q WIRE EDM MACHINE

Technical Description

The SODICK VL400Q Wire EDM machine features linear motor-driven axes with glass scale feedback on the X, Y, U, and V axes, delivering exceptional precision and a 10-year positioning accuracy guarantee. It offers travels of 15.75 inches (X), 11.81 inches (Y), and 8.66 inches (Z), with additional U and V axis travels of approximately 3.14 inches each for taper and wire positioning. The machine utilizes Sodick’s advanced LN2W CNC control system, running on a Windows platform with a 15” color screen, supporting high-speed, high-efficiency machining and user-friendly operation. The work tank measures 33.85 by 27.16 inches, supporting submerged EDM operation and accommodating workpieces up to approximately 1,100 lbs. It supports wire diameters from 0.1 to 0.3 mm with auto threading capabilities for improved process reliability. Ceramic components in guide assemblies and table supports reduce thermal expansion and enhance rigidity, contributing to superior machining stability. The machine dimensions are roughly 79.53 x 90.16 x 78.35 inches, with a weight near 5,952 lbs. Features include energy-saving circuitry, dielectric cooling, built-in voltage stabilization, and high-speed electrolysis-free power supply for optimal surface finish and process control. Ergonomically designed with a vertical access door to the work tank, the VL400Q accommodates complex precision machining across a wide range of applications with high repeatability and reduced energy consumption. This combination of precision mechanics, advanced controls, and robust construction makes the VL400Q a versatile and reliable Wire EDM solution for demanding manufacturing environments.
