How much does the Amada APELIO 357V cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc punch presse in this class — not a quote from Amada. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Amada APELIO 357V is a punch and laser combination machine: a 30 tons (300 kN) servo electric turret punch and a CO2 laser working over the same 1270 x 2500 mm area. Amada's current lineup does not include this model, so what follows is written from the listed figures for someone assessing a second-hand machine.
The two processes have different limits. The punch handles mild steel up to 6.35 mm. The laser cuts mild steel to 12 mm, stainless to 6 mm and aluminum to 4 mm. In practice the turret does the holes and repeated shapes at up to 300 hits/min, while the laser takes outside profiles and any contour that has no matching tool. Laser power is listed as 2.5 kW or 3 kW depending on configuration, so establish which resonator a particular machine carries before relying on the thick end of those cutting figures.
The turret has 36 stations with auto-index capability and takes Amada standard tool sizes A, B, C, D and E. Control is the Amada AMNC-F with AP100 CAM integration, and weight is approx. 14,000 kg. On a machine of this kind the condition of the CO2 resonator deserves as much attention at inspection as the punch drive.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Punching at 30 tons (300 kN) and CO2 laser cutting over one 1270 x 2500 mm working area
- Laser cuts mild steel to 12 mm, well beyond the 6.35 mm punching limit
- 36 turret stations with auto-index capability, taking tool sizes A to E
- Servo electric punch drive, listed at up to 300 hits/min
Limitations
- Laser power is 2.5 kW or 3 kW depending on configuration, so cutting capacity differs between individual machines
- Laser limits fall to 6 mm in stainless and 4 mm in aluminum
- Punching is limited to 6.35 mm mild steel
- The listed figures give no positioning accuracy or axis speeds

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Both. The listed figures describe a servo electric punch of 30 tons (300 kN) and a CO2 resonator on one machine, sharing a 1270 x 2500 mm working area. Punched features and laser-cut contours are made on the same sheet.
02
It depends on the process and the material. Punching is listed to 6.35 mm in mild steel. Laser cutting is listed to 12 mm in mild steel, 6 mm in stainless and 4 mm in aluminum.
03
The laser is a CO2 type listed at 2.5 kW or 3 kW, configuration dependent. Two machines with this name can therefore differ, so read the laser data plate on the machine you are considering.
04
The turret has 36 stations with auto-index capability and accepts Amada standard tool sizes A, B, C, D and E. The control is listed as the Amada AMNC-F with AP100 CAM integration.
