Press Brakes
Used AccurPress 71606: Sell or Buy at Auction
AccurPress is a Canadian press brake manufacturer producing hydraulic and electro-hydraulic synchronized (EHS) press brakes for the North American sheet metal fabrication market. Known for robust construction, competitive pricing, and the AccurTouch and AccurGraph CNC control systems, AccurPress brakes are a popular choice in job shops and fabrication shops across Canada and the United States.
The AccurPress 71606 is a 160 ton hydraulic press brake with a 6 foot (72 inch) bed, part of AccurPress's long-running 7000 series of North American built hydraulic brakes. The model number reads straight off the machine: 160 tons of bending force over a 6 foot bed. What sets it apart is how much tonnage it packs onto a short bed. A 6 foot, 60 ton brake like the AccurPress 7606 shares the same footprint but delivers well under half the force, so the 71606 is built to fold heavier plate and thicker gauge in short lengths rather than to run longer parts. That profile draws plate and structural steel fabricators and heavy sheet metal shops that want more punch in a compact frame, without stepping up to a 10 or 12 foot machine that eats more floor space than their work requires. Shops bidding on a 71606 are usually adding tonnage to an existing cell or retiring an aging manual brake for a hydraulic one, and its hydraulic ram and back gauge, along with whatever control and tooling a given unit carries, make it straightforward to inspect, test, and return to production after purchase. KD Auctions moves AccurPress brakes like the 71606 through both timed online auctions and negotiated private sale, drawing on 500,000+ industry contacts to put this tonnage class in front of the fabrication shops actively bidding on it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a used AccurPress 71606 press brake worth?
Resale value for a 71606 depends on age, hours, condition, the back gauge and control package installed, and the tooling that comes with it, so no single figure applies across machines. KD Auctions offers a free AMEA-accredited, USPAP-compliant appraisal that establishes both orderly liquidation value (OLV) and forced liquidation value (FLV) for your specific machine before you decide how to sell it.
How do I sell a used AccurPress 71606?
You can sell a 71606 two ways through KD Auctions: a timed online auction that puts the machine in front of a national field of active fabricators and dealers, or a negotiated private sale when you want a quieter, direct transaction. A managed auction runs about 6 to 10 weeks from engagement to payout, and once a sale closes our team can be onsite for rigging and removal within 48 to 72 hours, which matters for a heavy short-bed brake that needs proper handling. Commission is tailored to the engagement and quoted upfront, and most sellers pay nothing out of pocket.
