Press Brakes, Laser Cutters & Punch Presses
Used Amada EMK 3610: Sell or Buy at Auction
Amada is the world's largest manufacturer of sheet metal fabrication equipment, with a dominant position in press brakes, laser cutting systems, punch presses, and shears. Amada machines are the standard equipment in metal fabrication shops across North America, making them highly liquid at auction with strong buyer demand.
The Amada EMK 3610, most often listed as the EMK-3610NT, is a CNC turret punch press rated at 33 tons of punching force. It runs a servo driven ram, twin AC servo drives coupled directly to the drive shaft rather than a hydraulic system, paired with a 58-station turret and multi-tool auto-index stations that hold several tools each, so a single setup can punch, notch, form, and mark without manual tool changes. A repositioning work carriage feeds the sheet under the turret, handling material up to roughly 60 inches wide and 100 to 120 inches long with repositioning in thicknesses up to 1/4 inch, at hit rates that reach about 500 per minute on tight centers. That makes it a production punching machine for mild steel, stainless, and aluminum, not a plate bending brake. HVAC manufacturers, electrical enclosure fabricators, and precision sheet metal shops favor the EMK 3610 because it delivers Amada throughput and repeatability in a footprint that fits a mid-size shop, and because the platform holds resale interest: its controls and tooling are widely supported, and complete cells, often paired with load and unload automation, trade steadily. At auction, a recognizable Amada nameplate plus a proven turret design keeps bidding active, and KD Auctions markets these units to its network of 500,000+ industry contacts to move that demand quickly.

What is an Amada EMK 3610 worth at auction?
Value depends on the year, the hit count and overall hours, mechanical and turret condition, the control and drive package, and the tooling and any automation included, so no single figure fits every unit. KD Auctions offers a free AMEA-accredited, USPAP-compliant appraisal covering both orderly liquidation value (OLV) and forced liquidation value (FLV), giving sellers a documented baseline before they decide how to sell.
How does the Amada EMK 3610 compare to other Amada turret punch presses?
The EMK 3610, usually sold as the EMK-3610NT, is a 33-ton servo driven turret punch press with a 58-station turret and multi-tool auto-index stations, sized for high volume punching of lighter gauge sheet up to about 1/4 inch. It sits below Amada's larger, higher tonnage turret presses and its combination punch and laser machines, and buyers choose it specifically for HVAC ductwork, enclosures, and general sheet metal fabrication rather than heavier plate. To sell one, call KD Auctions at 480.455.3910: a managed auction typically runs 6 to 10 weeks from engagement to payout, with onsite dispatch within 48 to 72 hours, and commission is tailored to the engagement and quoted upfront, so most sellers pay nothing out of pocket.
