glass scale feedback
linear motor drves
menu driven control
no flush technology
Sodick linear servo motors for CNC die-sinkers can reduce EDM machining time as high as 50 percent. Since there are no ball screws or couplings, backlash is totally eliminated. The menu-driven control automatically writes the NC code for the operator, while inserting the optimum cutting conditions. With its instantaneous responsive control and no flush technology, our CNC sinkers can take you to new depths and make the impossible become possible.
With Sodick's new LQ Control you can import Parasolid (solid models) files directly into the control. This unique feature maximizes the cutting efficiency, reduces the workflow and eliminates programming errors.

ONA DB series
- New high-speed pulse technology, which allows to get the following results:
* Shorter machining times in jobs that involve very difficult flushing.
* More homogeneous finish on large surface areas (VDI 20 on 225 cm²).
* Very deep grooves can be machined, with the highest quality and precision guaranteed
(VDI 20 up to 100 mm).
- The Expert System featured in the generator of the ONA DB 300 models ensures totally automated production with one hundred percent performance and an excellent finish.
- Surface finish of up to VDI = 0. This machines include a high-performance generator in removal operations, while at the same time preserving the electrodes and allowing excellent performance in fine finish mode (up to VDI = 0).
- Subsurface injection function. A great aid to speed when the injection points required by a mould are being realized.
- Important savings. The filter featured optionally in the ONA serie DB machines guarantees over 10,000 hours in operation with zero maintenance costs. Filtering quality is excellent (1 micron).

EDM die sinking reproduces, in a metallic workpiece, the shape of a tool called electrode. Injection molds for plastic parts are very frequently machined by die sinking.
The shape given to the electrode is that of the object that is going to be molded. In the machining area, each discharge creates a crater in the workpiece (material removal) and an impact on the tool (wear of the tool/electrode).
There is never any mechanical contact between the electrode and workpiece. The electrode is usually made of copper or graphite.
