Sodick Marks 50 Years as Manabu Reflects on the Company’s Journey

Sodick is celebrating a major milestone in 2026 as the company marks 50 years in business.

Founded in 1976, Sodick has grown into a globally recognised name in EDM and advanced manufacturing technology, with a reputation built around precision, innovation and long-term customer support.

While the technology has continued to evolve over five decades, the company’s success has also been built on its people, its relationships with customers and distributors, and a continued commitment to developing solutions for modern manufacturing.

The anniversary provides an opportunity not only to look back at the progress made since 1976, but also to recognise the teams across the world who continue to drive the business forward.
