Sodick AD series

Thanks to its innovative design, the AD series has minimised the structural deformations of the machine and enhanced the acceleration, performance and speed of linear drive motors. In addition, the unique independent design of the X and Y axes allows longer strokes in a smaller footprint, resulting in increased machining accuracy. The LN3 control system, with a 15” screen of innovative and ergonomic design, has the capacity to handle high speed, high precision and high machining efficiency.

The generator is equipped with the new ‘SGF Plus’ discharge unit and is designed to optimise performance with graphite electrodes: it eliminates electrode wear, maximises machining speed and achieves high quality performance.

The linear motor is a direct drive, vibration-free device with backlash-free acceleration and positioning accuracy and no response delay. Its remarkable characteristics of high dynamic response, stability and precision do not deteriorate over time and require no maintenance. The high performance of the linear motors is further enhanced by the Motion Controller (K-SMC) system.

In the AD series, ceramic components are used, the ideal material for ensuring extreme high rigidity, electrical insulation where necessary, high precision and wear resistance.
