How much does the Sodick AQ750LH cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a wire edm in this class — not a quote from Sodick. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Sodick AQ750LH is listed as the taller-workpiece counterpart of the AQ750L: both have 29.53 in (750 mm) of X, 19.68 in (500 mm) of Y and 23.62 in (600 mm) of Z, but the AQ750LH takes workpieces up to 400 mm (15.7 in) high against 300 mm (11.8 in) on the AQ750L. For tall die blocks, thick mould plates and stacked parts, that extra height is the reason to pick it.
The other listed figures match the AQ750L. On this model the work table is 1,000 x 720 mm (39.4 x 28.3 in), workpieces may weigh up to 3,307 lb (1,500 kg), the work tank is 49.76 in × 38.31 in (1,264 × 973 mm) and wire runs from 0.006 in to 0.012 in (0.15 - 0.30 mm). Taper is given as ±15° over a 100 mm height, which says nothing about the angle at the full 400 mm, so ask before quoting tapered work on tall parts.
The spec sheet credits the machine with linear motor drives on X, Y, U and V, an SP43A generator with e-pak discharge circuit, a Sodick LQ controller and a cast iron and granite composite bed. It quotes Ra 0.20 µm achievable finish and ±0.001 mm positioning accuracy. Have Sodick confirm these for the machine on offer, and ask whether the finish figure holds on a cut of full height.
For installation, plan on 82.68 in × 110.24 in × 92.52 in (2,100 × 2,800 × 2,350 mm), 11,684 lb (5,300 kg) and a table height of 39.37 in (1,000 mm). No electrical rating is listed.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Listed workpiece height of 400 mm (15.7 in), against 300 mm (11.8 in) on the AQ750L
- 23.62 in (600 mm) of Z travel with a 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) workpiece limit
- Linear motor drives on X, Y, U and V and in-cut re-threading in the listed table
- Work tank of 49.76 in × 38.31 in (1,264 × 973 mm)
Limitations
- Fine wire below 0.006 in (0.15 mm) is not in the listed range
- The listed positioning accuracy and surface finish figures need confirming with Sodick
- No electrical supply rating in the listed table
- Taper is only given over a 100 mm height, not at the full 400 mm (15.7 in)

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Only in workpiece height, as listed: 400 mm (15.7 in) on the AQ750LH against 300 mm (11.8 in) on the AQ750L. Both are listed with 29.53 in × 19.68 in × 23.62 in (750 × 500 × 600 mm) of travel and a 3,307 lb (1,500 kg) workpiece limit.
02
The listed taper range is ±15° over a 100 mm height for this model. The table does not say what angle is possible at 400 mm (15.7 in), so ask Sodick before quoting tapered work on tall parts.
03
The AQ900L has 35.43 in (900 mm) of X and 23.62 in (600 mm) of Y but 15.75 in (400 mm) of Z, and weighs 17,637 lb (8,000 kg). The AQ750LH is smaller in plan at 29.53 in × 19.68 in (750 × 500 mm), has more Z travel and weighs 11,684 lb (5,300 kg).
04
A space of 82.68 in × 110.24 in × 92.52 in (2,100 × 2,800 × 2,350 mm) and a floor for 11,684 lb (5,300 kg). The table is 39.37 in (1,000 mm) high. The listed table gives no power rating, so the electrical supply must be confirmed with Sodick.
