How much does the Murata Wiedemann Motorum 2048 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc punch presse in this class — not a quote from Murata Wiedemann. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Murata Wiedemann Motorum 2048 is a 200 kN (20.5 Metric Tons) CNC turret punch press that takes a 1,250 mm x 2,500 mm sheet without repositioning. One reposition extends that to 1,250 mm x 5,000 mm, and the axes move at a simultaneous speed of 125 m / min.
Murata Wiedemann lists the turret in two tooling styles. In Wiedemann style it comes with 44 stations including 4 A / I, or with 54 stations including 2 A / I. In spring style it has 46 stations with 4 A / I. A / I is the abbreviation for auto-index, the stations that rotate a tool under program control. The choice trades total tool count against the number of stations that can turn a shaped punch to any angle: the 54-station turret holds more tools than the 44-station one but has half as many auto-index stations.
Within the Motorum range this is the middle machine. The Motorum 2044 has the same force but only 1,250 mm x 1,250 mm without repositioning, and 106 m / min. The Motorum 3048 keeps the sheet sizes, speed and turret choices and raises the force to 300 kN (30.6 Metric Tons). All three are limited to 6.35 mm in mild steel, so the extra force of the Motorum 3048 goes into larger hole perimeters and stronger materials, not into thicker plate.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Full 1,250 mm x 2,500 mm sheet without repositioning, and 1,250 mm x 5,000 mm with one reposition
- Three turret layouts: Wiedemann style with 44 or 54 stations, spring style with 46 stations
- Simultaneous axis speed of 125 m / min, against 106 m / min on the Motorum 2044
- 200 kN (20.5 Metric Tons) of punching force with a 6.35 mm mild steel limit
Limitations
- The 54-station Wiedemann-style turret has only 2 A / I stations, against 4 A / I on the 44-station layout
- Punching force is 200 kN (20.5 Metric Tons); the Motorum 3048 offers 300 kN (30.6 Metric Tons) on the same sheet sizes
- Mild steel thickness is limited to 6.35 mm

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It depends on the tooling style. Murata Wiedemann lists the Wiedemann-style turret with 44 stations (4 A / I) or 54 stations (2 A / I), and the spring-style turret with 46 stations (4 A / I). A / I refers to auto-index stations. Pick the layout by how many shaped tools need to rotate against how many tools need to stay loaded.
02
1,250 mm x 2,500 mm without repositioning, and 1,250 mm x 5,000 mm with one reposition. A 1,250 mm x 2,500 mm sheet is therefore punched in a single clamping, and the reposition is only needed for longer stock.
03
The two share sheet sizes, the 125 m / min axis speed, the turret layouts and the 6.35 mm mild steel limit. The Motorum 3048 has 300 kN (30.6 Metric Tons) of force against 200 kN (20.5 Metric Tons) here. Choose on the force your largest tools need at your thickest material, since the working envelope is identical.
