Most of the used Sodick EDMs KD Machinery has listed are AQ-series wire machines built from 2004 to 2013. KD Machinery also buys and sells Sodick sinkers and hole-drilling EDMs, and its Sodick listings range from a 1998 build to a 2023 build.

Ref # 8076709The AQ series makes up most of the Sodick wire EDMs KD Machinery has listed, built from 2004 to 2013. The AQ300L is the small one, with 12 by 8 inches of X and Y travel. The AQ535L, AQ537L and AQ560LX all sit around 22 by 14 inches, and the AQ750L is the large one at 29.5 by 19.7. The VZ300L and VZ500L on the record date from 2012 and 2013, and the newest wire machines are an ALN400G from 2022 and a VN600Q from 2023. U and V travel is about 3 inches on most, and the taper listed runs from 15 to 30 degrees.
On KD Machinery’s record, AQ machines built in 2004 and 2005 carry the LQ1W or LQ33W control, those built from 2004 to 2009 the LN1W, and those from 2011 to 2013 the LN2W or LN2WH. Most of the sinkers run the LN1 or LN2. A wire EDM’s control holds its cutting conditions, so ask which version is fitted and whether the machine’s condition libraries are intact.
The Sodick sinkers on KD Machinery’s record, such as the AM3L, AD30L, AD35L, AG60L and AL40G, range from 2003 to 2021. The K1C hole-drilling machines, used to start holes for wire threading, date from 1998 and 2002.
Cut a test part and measure it. Watch the automatic wire threader, listed on many of these machines, thread and rethread several times. Check the dielectric water system, the resin and filters, and the chiller. Look at the glass scales where fitted, and the condition of the work tank and table. Most Sodicks KD Machinery has listed are wired for 200 to 230 volts three-phase, and a few were sold with a transformer, so check your shop’s supply.
KD Machinery lists Mitsubishi EDMs on their own page, used Mitsubishi EDM machines. Every Sodick it lists, molding machines included, is on the Sodick manufacturer page, and other makes are under used EDM machines.
We have handled 14 Sodick EDM machines, spanning build years 2001 to 2023. That is our own record, not a catalog listing.

Across 23 Sodick EDM machines we have listed with a published price, the middle half ran from $36,995 to $79,750, with a median of $44,995. A quarter were listed below that band and a quarter above it. These are the prices we asked, not what any machine changed hands for — condition, hours, tooling and control generation move a machine within it. Ask us where a specific one sits. Asking prices as of November 2026.
The AQ535Ls KD Machinery has listed have 21.6 by 13.7 inches of X and Y travel. The AQ537L and AQ560LX are close to the same size, the AQ300L is smaller at 12 by 8 inches, and the AQ750L is larger at 29.5 by 19.7.
On KD Machinery's record it depends on the year: the LQ1W or LQ33W on machines built in 2004 and 2005, the LN1W on machines from 2004 to 2009, and the LN2W from 2011 on. Ask which version the machine runs.

Of the 14 Sodick EDM machines KD Machinery has handled, the most common variants are AQ560LX (2), AM3L (2), AQ535L/LQ1W (1), VN600Q (1), AQ40L (1). That is our own record of what has actually come through, not a catalog of everything the manufacturer built.
KD runs lien searches on every transaction so that our buyers can have peace of mind that they are purchasing an asset that does not have any active liens on it. We take this very seriously and are willing to pass up a deal if the seller won't cooperate on getting active liens cleared.
