Summary

The Sodick ALN600G iGE+ is a 5-axis wire electrical discharge machining (EDM) system designed for precision contour cutting of conductive materials. It employs rigid linear motor drives on X, Y, U, and V axes, and Z-axis automatic control, with advanced SPW (Smart Pulse Wire) and iGroove+ wire rotation technologies to deliver high accuracy and minimized wire usage. Key differentiators include thermal displacement correction, automatic programming from 3D CAD files, and a flexible worktank design for improved accessibility and setup.

Key Capabilities

• Rigid flat linear motor drives with glass scale feedback on X, Y, U, and V axes for backlash-free, high-precision motion
• Smart Pulse Generator and TMP II Super Finishing Circuit for enhanced surface finish and reduced cutting passes
• iGroove+ wire rotation technology to increase surface accuracy and minimize wire consumption
• Automatic wire threading with submerged and non-submerged capabilities, including thermal straightening and closed guide system
• Intelligent Q³vic EDW software for direct 3D CAD import and automatic contour extraction
• Thermal Commit (TH COM) function for real-time thermal displacement compensation
• Taper Flex hardware/software for precision taper angle machining (22° and 45° options)
• Multi-axis simultaneous control (up to 8 axes) for "Turn and Burn" operations
• Advanced operator interface with 19" touch screen and remote maintenance access
• Large, 3-sided rise/fall stainless steel worktank for ergonomic setup and easy maintenance
