Overview
The Amada EG-6013 is a 60-ton, 1.3-meter all-electric servo press brake. Dual AC servo motors drive the ram with no hydraulic oil. Press capacity is 600 kN with 1,300 mm beam. Ram repeatability is ±0.001 mm. New: $80,000-$120,000. Used: $50,000-$75,000. Competitors: Trumpf TruBend 2100, SafanDarley E-Brake 65T.
The AMNC 3i touchscreen control handles bend simulation, sequencing, collision checking, and VPSS 3i offline connectivity. 60 tons across 51 inches handles mild steel to ~4mm.
Amada’s EG series shares the same control platform across all models, ensuring operator training transfers directly. The all-electric drive eliminates hydraulic maintenance entirely.
New pricing runs $80,000-$120,000 depending on tooling. Used 2016-2020 units trade at $50,000-$75,000. The EG-6013 is the sweet spot between the compact EG-4010 and full-size hydraulic machines.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- All-electric drive eliminates hydraulic oil, filters, warm-up, and leak risk for dramatically lower maintenance
- 60-ton capacity across 51-inch bed is meaningfully more versatile than the 40-ton EG-4010 for modest price increase
- ±0.001 mm ram repeatability matches Amada’s flagship HG series without hydraulic complexity
- Compact footprint fits into manufacturing cells, small shops, or alongside larger machines
- Near-silent operation under 70 dB suits enclosed production environments
- Identical AMNC 3i control ensures zero retraining across Amada fleet
Limitations
- 60-ton capacity and 1.3-meter bed still limit you to small-to-medium parts
- $80K-$120K is premium for a 60-ton brake vs imported hydraulic at half the cost
- Amada’s proprietary tooling restricts third-party punch and die options
- Electric servo has limited bottoming/coining force vs hydraulic of equivalent tonnage
- Used EG-6013 availability is limited because owners keep them for many years

Frequently Asked Questions
01
New units run $80,000-$120,000 depending on tooling and backgauge. Used from 2016-2020 trade for $50,000-$75,000 when available.
02
Default to the EG-6013 unless floor space requires the smaller machine. The extra 20 tons and 300mm of bed provide significantly more versatility for roughly $20K-$30K more.
03
With 60 metric tons across 1.3 meters, it air-bends mild steel up to about 4mm full-bed-length. Stainless capacity is about 3mm. Shorter bends allow proportionally thicker material.
04
Advantages: zero hydraulic maintenance, instant startup, quieter, no thermal drift, exceptional repeatability. Disadvantages: lower max tonnage for the price, limited bottoming force, restricted to Amada tooling.
05
Yes, the AMNC 3i supports external automation interfaces, and the compact footprint suits robotic bending cells. Consistent electric drive behavior simplifies robotic process reliability.
