How much does the Amada PEGA 357 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 PEGA 357 is a turret punch press listed at 300 kN (33 US ton) of punching force, with 36 tool stations and a maximum sheet size of 1,270 x 3,048 mm (50 x 120 in). Amada's current lineup does not include it. This page is therefore for someone considering a used machine, and the listed figures should be confirmed on the machine itself.
Thickness capacity is given as 6.4 mm mild steel, 4 mm stainless and 6 mm aluminum. The 36 stations are a single-D, double-D and large-D mix, so the count of each size on a particular turret decides which of a shop's existing tools will fit. Ask the seller for the turret layout before committing. For scale, the AE 2510 NT and the EM-2510NT each list 45 turret stations.
Speed is listed as 520 hpm in single hit mode and 90 m/min positioning on X and Y. The control is given as Amada AMNC. Weight is approx. 8,500 kg, which sits between the approx. 7,500 kg of the EM-2510NT and the 12500 kg of the AE 2510 NT.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 300 kN (33 US ton) of listed punching force, with capacity given as 6.4 mm mild steel, 4 mm stainless and 6 mm aluminum
- Takes sheets up to 1,270 x 3,048 mm (50 x 120 in)
- Listed at 520 hpm in single hit mode, with 90 m/min positioning on X and Y
Limitations
- 36 stations, against 45 turret stations on the AE 2510 NT and the EM-2510NT, so larger tool sets mean more turret changes
- Stainless is limited to 4 mm, well under the 6.4 mm listed for mild steel
- The 520 hpm figure applies to single hit mode only; no nibbling or marking rate is listed

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed figures are 6.4 mm in mild steel, 4 mm in stainless and 6 mm in aluminum, on a punching force of 300 kN (33 US ton). On a used machine, confirm these against the capacity plate and the manual that comes with it.
02
36 stations, in a mix of single-D, double-D and large-D sizes. The split between those sizes matters more than the total, because it decides which punches and dies can be mounted at once. The AE 2510 NT and the EM-2510NT each list 45 turret stations.
03
The listed weight is approx. 8,500 kg, so floor loading and rigging need to be planned for that. The maximum sheet size is 1,270 x 3,048 mm (50 x 120 in), and the space around the machine has to allow a sheet of that size to be loaded and moved through its full travel.
