How much does the Amada HDS-5020NT CNC Press Brake cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc press brake in this class — not a quote from Amada. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Amada HDS-5020NT CNC press brake is listed at 500 metric tons (551 US tons, 4,903 kN) on a 6,200 mm (244 in, 20.3 ft) bed. It is not in Amada's current lineup. By the listed figures this is a heavy plate machine, and its size shapes every decision around it.
Start with the building. Machine weight is given as approximately 70,000 kg and the power requirement as approximately 45 kVA. A machine of that mass needs its foundation, crane access and transport route settled before anything else, and for a second-hand purchase the move is a project in its own right.
The working envelope matches the force. Open height is 600 mm (23.6 in), the stroke 250 mm (9.8 in) and the throat 500 mm (19.7 in), which leaves room for large dies and deep sections. The drive is hydraulic synchronous with dual cylinders, and automatic CNC crowning is listed, as it needs to be on a bed this long. The ram approaches at 200 mm/sec, presses at a programmable 10 mm/sec and returns at 120 mm/sec. Ram repeatability is listed as ±0.01 mm.
Control is the Amada AMNC 3i. The back gauge row reads 6-axis and names X, R, Z1, Z2 and an optional X2, so the exact axis set is something to confirm on the machine.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 500 metric tons (4,903 kN) of press capacity on a 6,200 mm (244 in) bed
- 600 mm (23.6 in) open height and 500 mm (19.7 in) throat for large tooling and deep sections
- Automatic CNC crowning with a dual-cylinder hydraulic synchronous drive
- Ram repeatability listed as ±0.01 mm
Limitations
- Approximately 70,000 kg: foundation, crane and transport have to be planned around it
- Not in Amada's current lineup, so the listed figures need confirming on the machine
- Return speed is 120 mm/sec against a 200 mm/sec approach, so cycles on long strokes are slow
- The back gauge row lists 6-axis but names X, R, Z1, Z2 and an optional X2; the fitted axes are unclear

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed figures are 500 metric tons of press capacity (551 US tons, 4,903 kN) and a 6,200 mm bed (244 in, 20.3 ft). Stroke is 250 mm (9.8 in), open height 600 mm (23.6 in) and throat depth 500 mm (19.7 in).
02
It is not in Amada's current lineup. Treat the listed figures as a starting point and confirm capacity, bed length and back gauge on the machine's own plate and documents before committing to transport or a foundation.
03
Machine weight is listed as approximately 70,000 kg and the power requirement as approximately 45 kVA. Foundation design, crane capacity and the route into the building all have to be checked against a load of that size.
04
The control is the Amada AMNC 3i. The back gauge is listed as 6-axis, with X, R, Z1 and Z2 named and X2 marked optional. Because the named axes and the count do not line up exactly, check which axes a given machine has.
