Starting from the development of electrical discharge circuits, Sodick has continued to tackle research and development untiringly in pursuit of the highest level of accuracy, speed and versatility of machining to offer products with a slogan, "Sodick offers the technologies helpful to customers".  As a result, the technologies for CNC units, fine ceramics, linear motors, motion controllers and electrical discharge power units have been established as the five core technologies of the company.  Based on fine position control technology, which constitutes the fundamental of manufacturing machinery, and adding the elementary technologies of the five in-house developed core technologies, Sodick keeps on trying to challenge its ability in new fields of technology.
