How much does the Amada EMK 3612 M2 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 EMK 3612 M2 is a twin AC servo-electric turret punch press with 300 kN (33 tons) of punching force and a 3,658 x 1,270 mm (144 x 50 in) working area. The listed figures describe a machine for long sheet with a large, mixed tool load.
Its turret is a triple-track King turret, listed with 55 or 58 stations. Four of those are auto-index stations in two sizes, two 4.5 in and two 1.25 in. The larger pair is the useful detail: big shaped tools and forming tools can be rotated to the angle a part needs, not just small ones.
Forming is the second strength. Maximum forming depth is listed as 12.7 mm (0.5 in) with programmable dwell, so the ram can hold at the bottom of the stroke while the material sets. Louvres, embosses and extrusions are the kind of feature that row is about.
The drive has no hydraulics, and the table lists power savings of up to 70% against hydraulic machines. The remaining listed figures are 500 strokes/min, 90 m/min traverse, +/-0.05 mm positioning accuracy, 6.35 mm (0.25 in) maximum thickness in mild steel and an Amada AMNC 3i touchscreen control. Weight is approx. 18,000 kg (39,683 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Triple-track King turret with 55 or 58 stations
- Four auto-index stations, including two at 4.5 in for large shaped tools
- Forming to 12.7 mm (0.5 in) deep with programmable dwell
- Twin AC servo-electric drive with no hydraulics, listed at up to 70% power savings against hydraulic machines
- 3,658 x 1,270 mm (144 x 50 in) working area with +/-0.05 mm positioning accuracy
Limitations
- Maximum sheet thickness is 6.35 mm (0.25 in) in mild steel; no stainless or aluminum figure is listed
- Only four stations auto-index: two 4.5 in and two 1.25 in
- Station count is 55 or 58, so confirm which turret a particular machine has
- Approx. 18,000 kg (39,683 lb), so rigging and floor capacity need planning

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed figures describe a triple-track King turret with 55 or 58 stations. Four stations auto-index: two 4.5 in stations and two 1.25 in stations. The rest hold tools at a fixed angle.
02
Maximum forming depth is listed as 12.7 mm (0.5 in), with programmable dwell. Dwell lets the ram pause at the bottom of the stroke, which helps formed features such as louvres and embosses hold their shape.
03
No. The drive type is twin AC servo-electric with no hydraulics. The table lists power savings of up to 70% compared with hydraulic machines, and a maximum stroke rate of 500 strokes/min.
04
The working area is 3,658 x 1,270 mm (144 x 50 in) and the maximum sheet thickness is 6.35 mm (0.25 in) in mild steel. Traverse speed is 90 m/min and positioning accuracy is +/-0.05 mm.
