Overview

The Sodick AG600L is a wire EDM with 600 x 400 mm (23.6 x 15.7 in) of X/Y travel. It is not in Sodick's current lineup and is most likely an older model, so anyone looking at one will be buying a used machine, and its figures here could not be checked against a manufacturer page.

The listed figures give a part of up to 1050 x 820 x 370 mm and 800 kg (1,764 lb), U/V travel of ±80 mm (±3.1 in), a taper of ±30° over 100 mm of height, and wire from 0.1 to 0.3 mm. The machine weight is listed as ~5,800 kg on a 200V, 3-phase, 50/60 Hz supply, and the drive is described as linear motor on all axes.

The Z figure is not consistent. One row gives 370 mm (14.6 in), another gives the travels as 600 x 400 x 300 mm. On a used machine, measure the Z stroke and confirm the taper range on the machine itself before buying for tall parts.

For comparison, the current ALC600G moves 23.62 in (600 mm), 15.75 in (400 mm) and 13.78 in (350 mm) and weighs 10,141 lb (4,600 kg). A buyer weighing a used AG600L against it should set the travels side by side once the AG600L's Z has been measured.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

600 x 400 mm (23.6 x 15.7 in) of X/Y travel
Listed part capacity of 1050 x 820 x 370 mm and 800 kg (1,764 lb)
Listed taper of ±30° over 100 mm with ±80 mm (±3.1 in) of U/V
Wire range of 0.1 to 0.3 mm

Limitations

Not in Sodick's current lineup, so it is a used-machine purchase
Z travel is listed as both 370 mm and 300 mm, so the real stroke must be measured
The listed figures could not be checked against a manufacturer page

Best For

Mid-size die and mold plates within 600 x 400 mm Parts up to 800 kg (1,764 lb) Tapered work on a used machine after the taper range is checked

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is the Sodick AG600L still made?

It is not in Sodick's current lineup and is most likely an older model. A buyer will be looking at a used machine, so check its condition and measure its travels rather than relying on a spec sheet.

02 What are the AG600L's travels?

X/Y is listed as 600 x 400 mm (23.6 x 15.7 in), with ±80 mm (±3.1 in) of U/V. Z is listed as 370 mm (14.6 in) in one row and 300 mm in another, so confirm it on the machine.

03 How heavy a part can the AG600L take?

The listed figures give 800 kg (1,764 lb) and a maximum part size of 1050 x 820 x 370 mm. The machine itself is listed at ~5,800 kg, so plan the floor for both.

04 What is a current Sodick of the same size?

The ALC600G covers the same X/Y class with 23.62 in (600 mm), 15.75 in (400 mm) and 13.78 in (350 mm) of travel and weighs 10,141 lb (4,600 kg).
