The model number is the machine

After the leading 7, the next digits are the tonnage and the last two are the bed length in feet. Three more examples from KD Machinery’s listings:

  • 7608: 60 tons, 8-foot bed
  • 725012: 250 tons, 12-foot bed
  • 740014: 400 tons, 14-foot bed

Later machines add a series name, such as Advantage, Accell or Edge, in front of a number that still carries tonnage and length. That makes Accurpress listings easy to compare, but read the stroke, open height and throat depth as well: on most of the machines on the record they are 8, 14 and 10 inches.

Which control you will find

The control dates the machine. On KD Machinery’s record, pedestal controls and the Accurpress AP2 belong to machines built up to the late 1990s. The ETS family (ETS 100, ETS 200 and the common ETS 3000) runs from 1996 into the 2010s. The Vision touchscreen control appears on machines built from 2011 to 2019, the Accell and Edge among them. A few older brakes carry an aftermarket Automec or Hurco Autobend backgauge control instead of the original.

What to check on a used Accurpress

Most of the Accurpress brakes KD Machinery has listed were built between 1995 and 2010, so hydraulics deserve the closest look. Run the ram through full strokes under load and look for leaks at the cylinders, valves and hoses. Check that both ends of the ram stay parallel when you bend a test part the full length of the bed. Move every backgauge axis to its limits and check it returns to position. Look at the bed and ram faces for wear in the middle, where most bending happens, and ask whether the machine has crowning, since not every one does.
