Our best estimate for a sinker edm (ram edm) in this class — not a quote from Sodick. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Sodick AZ275Nano is a compact high-speed machining centre, not an EDM: 300 mm of X, 250 mm of Y and 100 mm of Z travel, a spindle that runs from 20,000 to 120,000 rpm, and a maximum cutting feed of 5,000 mm/min. Sodick lists it with its machining products.

A spindle that reaches 120,000 rpm only makes sense with very small cutters, the sub-millimetre end mills used on fine mould details, electrodes and micro features, where the tool needs surface speed it cannot get at lower rpm. The 20,000 rpm floor of the range means it is not a machine for large tools. Z travel of 100 mm keeps the work shallow: plates, inserts and small electrodes rather than tall parts.

Acceleration is listed as 2 × 1.5 × 2G, capped at max. 0.5 G during machining, so the high figures apply to positioning moves. The machine weighs 5,500 kg on a 1,350 × 2,030 × 2,050 mm footprint, a lot of mass under a 300 × 250 mm envelope, and it needs a 25 kVA power supply.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Spindle speed range of 20,000 - 120,000 rpm for very small cutters
5,500 kg of machine mass under a 300 × 250 × 100 mm envelope
Compact 1,350 × 2,030 mm floor area
Acceleration of 2 × 1.5 × 2G for positioning moves

Limitations

Only 100 mm of Z travel limits part height
Maximum cutting feed is 5,000 mm/min, and acceleration is capped at max. 0.5 G during machining
The 20,000 rpm lower end of the spindle range rules out large tools and slow heavy cuts
No table size, workpiece weight or tool capacity is given in the table

Best For

Micro-milling with small end mills at up to 120,000 rpm Fine detail on mould inserts within 300 × 250 mm Shallow parts and electrodes under 100 mm of Z

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is the AZ275Nano an EDM?

No. Its table describes a machining centre: a spindle running from 20,000 to 120,000 rpm, a maximum cutting feed of 5,000 mm/min, and 300 × 250 × 100 mm of travel. Sodick lists it with its machining products rather than its EDMs.

02 What kind of tools suit the AZ275Nano spindle?

Small ones. The 20,000 - 120,000 rpm range is for small-diameter end mills and drills that need high rpm to reach a useful cutting speed. Larger tools that need low rpm and high torque are outside what this spindle range is built for.

03 What does the AZ275Nano need for installation?

A 25 kVA power supply and floor space of 1,350 × 2,030 × 2,050 mm for a 5,500 kg machine. The weight is concentrated on a small footprint, so check the floor loading where it will stand.
