Used CNC press brake guide

Used AMADA HG press brake buyer's guide

AMADA's HG family covers multiple tonnage and bending-length configurations, so a search for an “AMADA press brake” is too broad for a useful match. Capacity, bed length, daylight, stroke, backgauge, tooling system, angle measurement, control and material application should define the requirement.

Why buyers search for it

A recognizable model is only the beginning.

Representative specifications

Use the numbers to frame the search—not approve the machine.

AMADA's published HG family range is not a specification for every used HG. Model numbers, region, year, tooling, control, backgauge, safety equipment and options must be verified on the individual brake.

Published force range
56 to 247 U.S. tons across the broader HG series [1]
Published bend-length range
55 to 169.3 in across the broader HG series [1]
Named current models
HG 1703, HG 2203 and HG 2204 on AMADA's U.S. family page [1]
Control reference
AMNC 3i with a 19-inch multi-touch display on the published series [1]

Configuration questions

What should be confirmed on an individual machine?

  1. What is the exact HG model, serial number, tonnage and bending length?
  2. What are the stroke, open height, throat, distance between frames and backgauge axes?
  3. Which tooling style, clamps, crowning and included punches or dies are present?
  4. Does it have angle measurement, sheet followers, automatic tooling or other productivity options?
  5. Which control generation, software and offline-programming connection are included?
  6. Can the seller demonstrate repeatability, ram and backgauge operation, crowning, safety systems and a representative bend?

Potential alternatives

If the exact model is difficult to find, widen the search carefully.

Press brakes should be matched to the actual bend calculation, tooling and part geometry. Similar tonnage alone does not establish adequate length, daylight, stroke, frame clearance, backgauge or safety configuration.

AMADA HRB series [2]

AMADA lists HRB 8025, 1003 and 2204 high-precision press brakes, including automatic-tool-change variants for some models.

Confirm: Required tonnage and length, drive architecture, control, tooling compatibility, backgauge, angle measurement and exact regional configuration.

TRUMPF TruBend Series 5000 [3]

TRUMPF publishes a broad precision bending family from 850 to 3,200 kN with several bending lengths and configuration choices.

Confirm: Metric capacity conversion, bed length, daylight, throat, tooling, backgauge, control, safety package, support and total installed cost.
