AP1L

Premium High End EDM Machine

Responding to the need for a higher level of machining accuracy, Sodick's AP1L Premium offers solutions to ultra precision machining requirements based on achieved superiority in mini and microscopic machining. production is improved through advanced functions for automation and labour saving operation. Revolutionary technology is needed for electrode dressing to support ultra precision high speed machining of hard and difficult materials in order to achieve manufacturing capability of mini and micro moulds.



Main Features

The screw-less drive, which uses a linear motor and linear scale, is the ideal drive method which maintains high-speed and high response performance semi-permanently. In addition, the AP1L employs the latest technology in highly rigid construction, small/precision head, and so on.

High-speed, high quality finishing “SVC” circuit

The “SVC” circuit increases the machining speed in finishing compared to our previous model, and supplies a uniform discharge pulse between the electrodes. The optimum surface roughness over the machining area is greatly improved, realizing a high quality pear-skin or mirror finish

Three-sided automated vertical slide machining tank

The three-sided automated vertical slide machining tank facilitates setup work for super-precision machining. It also enables an optimum cost to be configured when a robot is adopted for automation and labor saving.

AP3L

Premium High End EDM Machine

Ultrahigh Rigidity Double-Column structure and Linear Motor drive Employing a New Power supply unit Enhances productivity in ultrafine and Ultraprecision Machining.



Direct-drive & Unique structure

The AP3L employs linear motors in achieving direct-drive with high speed and fast dynamic responsiveness that will not diminish over time. The unique gantry construction provides a low center-of-gravity which minimizes mechanical displacement caused by workpiece weight. The new small head also works to improve accuracy.

"Arc-less" machining

The new "Arc-less" EDM machining system is a new standard feature which greatly improves machining speed and accuracy, and also minimizes human errors In addition, the Super-SVC circuit reduces surface roughness variation, and makes high quality “pear-skin” or mirror-finish surface possible with ease.

Ecology & Energy saving

AP3L is environment friendly, recognizing the importance of energy conservation and material waste reduction in its design. Sodick has gone back to the drawing board to re-think and re-examine all machine components, and worked to accomplish significant reduction in the number of parts used for machine construction
