Sodick Europe is all set to ‘go BIG’ at MACH 2020, with its biggest ever stand at the exhibition.
Examples of the latest Sodick technology cross a range of machining and production processes, and will include wire and sink EDM, high-speed milling and horizontal injection moulding.

Sodick goes big at MACH 2020
GL30-LP injection moulding machine
A prototype of the new 5-axis K4HL small hole drilling machine, developed specifically to meet the requirements of the aerospace industry, will make its world debut.
Sodick’s new generation of high-speed machining centres incorporates linear drives in all axes. Unlike conventional machines, the UH650L combines rough and fine milling with a rapidly rotating and traversing tool of small diameter.
For customers looking to take wire EDM accuracy to a new level, the ALC400P has been developed to satisfy the most demanding requirements – a pitch accuracy of +/-1 micron, for example.
The AD35L demonstrates Sodick’s dedication to innovation, using 3D design systems and the latest CAE technologies. Numerous simulations have made it possible to create an improved basic machine structure with increased rigidity, to minimise deformation and enable optimum performance at high-speed and rapid-acceleration linear motors. Furthermore, the design of an independent X and Y-axis, plus an efficient machine layout, leads to a longer stroke, smaller footprint and highly accurate machining capability.
Finally, Sodick’s new horizontal injection moulding machine is making its MACH debut. Although the machine has already been seen in Europe, it is expected to raise considerable interest at the NEC.
Sodick’s GL30-LP moulding machine incorporates a two-stage plunger injection system, the V-LINE, which is designed to provide a consistent plasticising heat profile, a constant filling volume, and constant holding pressure. These ensure the machine achieves ultra-precision injection moulding, consistently and reliably.
