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 HG 2203 is a 2200 kN CNC press brake with a 3110 mm press beam, the shorter-bed 2200 kN model next to the HG-2204. Amada lists 2700 mm between the frames, a 250 mm stroke and 520 mm of open height measured without the tool holder.
Putting 2200 kN over 3110 mm is what sets this model apart. The HG 1703 has the same 3110 mm beam and the same 2700 mm between frames but 1700 kN, so the HG 2203 is the one to pick when the part length is settled and the material is thicker or stronger. The HG-2204 goes the other way, with the same 2200 kN spread over a 4300 mm beam. For a bend that fits both machines the tonnage is identical, and the shorter machine saves floor space and weight.
Parts wider than 2700 mm cannot pass between the side frames, so anything longer has to be bent within the 450 mm throat depth. The 250 mm stroke and 520 mm open height leave room for tall punches and for lifting out deep box sections, although the usable daylight depends on the holder and tooling fitted, which the table does not list.
Ram speeds are 220 mm/sec on approach, 20 mm/sec while bending and 250 mm/sec on return. The working height is 960 mm. On the floor the machine takes 5589 mm by 2922 mm, stands 3215 mm high and weighs 15650 kg, so check crane capacity, door height and floor loading before it arrives.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 2200 kN of press capacity on a 3110 mm beam, against 1700 kN on the same beam length for the HG 1703
- 250 mm stroke with 520 mm open height (without holder) gives room for tall tooling and deep-flanged parts
- Approach at 220 mm/sec and return at 250 mm/sec keep the non-bending part of each stroke short
- 450 mm throat depth for bends on parts longer than the 2700 mm distance between frames
- At 15650 kg and 5589 mm long it is lighter and shorter than the HG-2204 at 18500 kg and 6650 mm
Limitations
- Bending length is capped by the 3110 mm beam; the HG-2204 offers 4300 mm at the same 2200 kN
- Only 2700 mm between the frames, so longer sheets are limited to the 450 mm throat depth
- Amada's table for this model has no backgauge, control or crowning rows, so those must be confirmed with the quotation
- Weighs 15650 kg and stands 3215 mm high, which needs checking against crane capacity and building clearance

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Bed length. Both are rated 2200 kN with a 250 mm stroke, 520 mm open height without holder and 450 mm throat depth, and the ram speeds are the same. The HG 2203 has a 3110 mm press beam and 2700 mm between frames; the HG-2204 has a 4300 mm beam and 3760 mm between frames. The HG-2204 is also longer and heavier, at 6650 mm and 18500 kg against 5589 mm and 15650 kg.
02
The press beam is 3110 mm long. The distance between the frames is 2700 mm, so a part up to that width can pass between them. A part longer than 2700 mm has to stay within the 450 mm throat depth, which limits how deep a flange can be formed along its full length.
03
Amada lists 220 mm/sec for the approach, 20 mm/sec for bending and 250 mm/sec for the return. The approach and return figures matter most on parts with many short bends, where most of each stroke is spent travelling to and from the sheet.
04
The machine is 5589 mm long, 2922 mm wide and 3215 mm high, and weighs 15650 kg. Allow extra room in front for the sheet and behind for the backgauge and service access; the table gives the machine dimensions only. The working height is 960 mm.
05
They share the bed: a 3110 mm press beam, 2700 mm between frames, a 250 mm stroke and the same three ram speeds. The HG 1703 is rated 1700 kN and weighs 13800 kg. The HG 2203 is rated 2200 kN and weighs 15650 kg, so it suits heavier plate over the same bend length.
