Overview
The Amada EGB 8025e is an 80-ton, 2.5-meter all-electric servo press brake — the largest-capacity model in Amada's current EGB-e electric press brake series. The machine delivers the full benefits of Amada's electric servo drive technology — no hydraulic oil, no pumps, no warm-up, and approximately 20% lower CO2 emissions — while providing the tonnage and bed length that cover the majority of general sheet metal fabrication requirements.
The EGB 8025e uses the same electric drive architecture as the rest of the EGB-e series, with dual servo motors providing variable torque and speed profiles optimized for each phase of the bending cycle. The approach phase runs at high speed with low torque, the pressing phase delivers low speed with high torque for precise bending control, and the return phase brings the ram back at high speed. Ram repeatability is rated at ±0.001 mm across the full stroke.
The AMNC 4ie control system provides the latest Amada press brake interface with voice command capability, operator recognition, and a touchscreen display. The 6-axis backgauge system with three-finger positioning handles complex part geometries that require independent gauge finger positioning in multiple axes. Electric crowning compensation maintains angular consistency across the 2,500 mm bending length.
At 80 tons and 2.5 meters, the EGB 8025e bridges the gap between Amada's compact electric brakes (EGB 4010e, EGB 6013e, EGB 6020e) and their larger hydraulic and hybrid machines (HRB, HG series). For shops that want to eliminate hydraulic maintenance entirely while retaining enough tonnage and bed length for mainstream fabrication work, the EGB 8025e represents the upper limit of Amada's all-electric press brake technology.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Largest all-electric press brake in Amada's lineup provides 80 tons across 2.5 meters without any hydraulic maintenance
- ±0.001 mm ram repeatability delivers consistent bend angles without trial bends across production shifts
- AMNC 4ie control with voice command and operator recognition provides the latest-generation Amada interface
- 6-axis backgauge with 3-finger positioning handles complex multi-bend parts that challenge simpler configurations
- Zero hydraulic oil means no leaks, no filter changes, no warm-up time, and ~20% lower CO2 emissions
- Near-silent operation under 70 dB enables use in noise-sensitive production environments
Limitations
- 80-ton capacity is the ceiling for Amada's all-electric technology — shops needing more tonnage must step to hybrid HRB or hydraulic HG series
- Premium pricing reflects Amada's electric drive technology and latest-generation control over imported hydraulic alternatives
- Amada proprietary tooling system limits third-party punch and die availability
- Electric servo drive has inherent coining and bottoming force limitations compared to hydraulic machines at equivalent tonnage

Frequently Asked Questions
01
For the majority of sheet metal work — mild steel up to 5 mm, stainless up to 4 mm, aluminum up to 6 mm at full 2.5-meter length — 80 tons is adequate. Shops that regularly bend plate thicker than 6 mm or need more than 100 tons should consider the HRB or HG series hybrid/hydraulic machines.
02
Both deliver 80 tons across 2.5 meters. The EGB 8025e is all-electric with ±0.001 mm repeatability and zero hydraulic maintenance. The HRB 8025 is hybrid servo-hydraulic with ±0.01 mm repeatability but potentially more coining/bottoming force. The EGB costs more upfront but has lower ongoing maintenance costs.
03
With no hydraulic system, maintenance is minimal. Routine items include linear guide lubrication, ball screw inspection, backgauge mechanism greasing, and electrical system checks. There are no oil changes, hydraulic filter replacements, or seal inspections required. Total maintenance cost is typically 60-70% lower than equivalent hydraulic machines.
04
Yes. The AMNC 4ie control supports external automation interfaces, and the consistent electric drive behavior makes the EGB 8025e well-suited for robotic bending applications. Amada offers the EGB AR robotic bending cell configuration for automated production. The compact machine footprint accommodates standard robotic cell layouts.
