Press Brake Machine Price Guide
What drives the cost of press brakes, bending machines and hydraulic shears, and how to compare quotations.
Why we do not publish a single price
Search for press brake machine price in India and you will see figures that vary several times over for machines with the same tonnage. That is because the price of a press brake depends on much more than its force rating. Rather than publish a number that may not match your needs, we quote each machine after understanding your parts. This page explains what drives the price, so you can compare quotations on a fair basis.
What decides press brake machine price
| Factor | Effect on price |
|---|---|
| Tonnage | More force needs larger cylinders, a heavier frame and bigger pump and motor. |
| Working length | Longer beds and rams use more steel and need more stiffness to stay accurate. |
| Control system | Conventional hydraulic costs least; NC/PLC adds programmable stroke and back gauge; CNC adds closed-loop control, servo back gauge and a graphical controller. |
| Back gauge axes | Each extra CNC-controlled axis (X, R, Z) adds motors, drives and software. |
| Crowning | Manual or automatic crowning for long, accurate bends adds cost. |
| Stroke, open height and throat | Deeper throats and more open height require a bigger frame. |
| Tooling | Standard punch and die sets versus multi-V dies, gooseneck punches and segmented tooling. |
| Safety equipment | Guards are standard; light curtains or laser guarding add cost. |
| Delivery and installation | Distance, unloading equipment and foundation work. |
Hydraulic press brake machine price
For a hydraulic press brake, tonnage and length are the main drivers. The PBR 215 (20 T, 1500 mm) is our most economical machine; the PBR 420 (40 T, 2000 mm) costs more because of the larger frame and hydraulics.
CNC press brake machine price
A CNC press brake costs more than a hydraulic machine of the same tonnage because of the controller, linear scales, proportional or servo valves and servo back gauge. The return comes from faster set-ups and less rework. Our CNC vs hydraulic comparison helps you judge whether CNC will pay back for your work.
Sheet metal bending machine price
For the SBM series, bending length and maximum thickness decide the price, from the SBM-1000 to the SBM-3000.
Hydraulic shearing machine price
For hydraulic shears, cutting thickness has the largest effect, followed by cutting length, back gauge type and PLC control.
How to compare quotations
- Check that every quotation is for the same tonnage, working length, stroke, open height and throat depth.
- Compare the control: make, model and number of axes.
- Check what tooling is included.
- Check the scope: delivery, unloading, installation, commissioning and training.
- Look at warranty terms and spare parts availability.
- Ask for the machine weight. Heavier frames usually mean stiffer machines.
Frequently asked questions
What is the price of a press brake machine in India?
It ranges widely with tonnage, length, control and tooling. Devraj quotes each machine after understanding your parts. Use the form below for a quotation.
Why is a CNC press brake more expensive?
It has a CNC controller, linear scales, proportional or servo hydraulics and a servo back gauge, which a conventional hydraulic machine does not.
Does the price include installation?
Scope of supply, including delivery and installation, is stated in each quotation.
