How much does the TRUMPF TruBend 3066 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc press brake in this class — not a quote from TRUMPF. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The TruBend 3066 is listed here as a short, heavy-hitting press brake: 60 tons (600 kN) of pressing force over a bending length of 660 mm (26 in), in a machine of approximately 3,200 kg. On those figures the force available per unit of length is high, which points to small parts in thick material or narrow die openings, not long panels.
The listed geometry is tight. The distance between the uprights is 510 mm, less than the bending length, so a part longer than that has to sit forward of the side frames within the 320 mm throat depth. The table is 730 mm long. Daylight and open height are both given as 395 mm with a ram stroke of 100 mm, so it is the stroke that limits how far a deep flange can be cleared once the tooling is in place.
Approach and return speeds are 100 mm/s and the working speed is 10 mm/s, a tenth of the approach rate. Setting the speed-change point close to the sheet therefore matters for cycle time. The back gauge has 2 axes (X, R) as standard: stop depth and stop height are programmable, and no further gauge axes appear in the listed figures. The control is the TRUMPF Touchpoint HMI.
For scale, the TruBend 7036 has a 1,020 mm (40.2 in) bending length at 3,300 kg (7,275 lb), a similar weight with a longer beam.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 60 tons (600 kN) of pressing force on a 660 mm (26 in) bending length, a high force for the beam length
- Approach and return speeds of 100 mm/s keep the non-bending part of the stroke short
- 395 mm of open height for tooling and part removal
- Runs on the TRUMPF Touchpoint HMI, with a 2-axis (X, R) back gauge as standard
Limitations
- Bending length is 660 mm (26 in), and only 510 mm passes between the uprights
- Working speed is listed at 10 mm/s, so long pressing strokes are slow
- Ram stroke is 100 mm, which limits deep flanges and tall tooling combinations
- The standard back gauge has 2 axes (X, R); the listed figures show no Z axes for moving the fingers along the bend line

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed figures are a pressing force of 60 tons (600 kN) and a bending length of 660 mm (26 in). The table is 730 mm long and the distance between the uprights is 510 mm. Confirm these against the machine's own documentation before quoting work on them.
02
Approach speed and return speed are both listed at 100 mm/s, and the working speed at 10 mm/s. Because pressing is ten times slower than the approach, the cycle is quickest when the changeover to working speed happens just above the sheet.
03
A 2-axis back gauge (X, R) is listed as standard. X sets how far the stop sits behind the bend line and R sets its height. The listed figures do not show any additional gauge axes, so parts with tapered or offset edges need checking first.
04
The TruBend 7036 has a longer bending length, 1,020 mm (40.2 in), and weighs 3,300 kg (7,275 lb). The TruBend 3066 is listed at 660 mm (26 in) and approximately 3,200 kg, so the two are close in weight and differ mainly in the length of part they take.
