The BLUM high-tech laser tool length measuring system guarantees the highest precision and reliability under the roughest conditions. The BLUM laser allows fast, precise and automatic tool setting on the Sodick High Speed Mills.

To test machine vibration we balance a on the chuck traveling at 1,400″/min on a CNC sinker EDM.

This video highlights the accuracy of two Sodick High Speed Mills. The MC430L which is a 16 year old machine as well as a UH560L Which is our latest model.

With Sodick’s OPM Metal 3D Printer, parallel sintering comes standard. Using just one laser, print in as many as three locations at once, amplifying productivity.

At IMTS 2016 Sodick was joined by Phoenix DeVentures CEO, Mr. Jeff Christian to talk about how 3D printing has developed from a prototyping tool all the way to a full metal production technology.
