Accurpress Electric Press Brakes
Accurpress Electric Press Brakes: Hybrid Servo-Electric Precision
Accurpress has manufactured press brakes in North America since 1973, with more than 21,000 machines sold to thousands of satisfied customers across 50+ years they know press brakes. The Accurpress press brake Ultimate Line represents the evolution to hybrid servo-electric hydraulic press brake technology. These press brakes are marketed as “the greenest press brakes on the market” with a servo-electric hybrid hydraulic system that only uses power during the bending stroke.
Electric and hybrid servo-electric press brakes reduce energy consumption by up to 67% compared with conventional hydraulic press brake systems, while delivering faster cycle times and higher repeatability.
Capital Machine Technologies provides full-stack support for all your press brake needs, such as mechanical press brakes, computer numerical control (CNC) press brakes, electric press brakes and hybrid-servo press brakes. We provide support from equipment selection through lifetime maintenance across 22 states, backed by 41 factory-trained field service engineers. We are not just selling machines but ensuring long-term production uptime.

Accell H
The Accurpress Hybrid machines use a combination of hydraulic and Servo Drive systems to control ram motion resulting in dramatically reduced energy costs. There is no hydraulic pump, meaning no energy consumption when the machine is at idle and the counterbalanced return stroke requires almost no energy to raise the ram
Which Industries Get the Most from Electric Press Brakes?
Electric press brakes excel in high-mix, low-volume job shop environments where frequent changeovers demand fast setup, quiet operation, and precise repeatability across varying material types and thicknesses.
Industries including HVAC, electrical enclosures, automotive suppliers, and precision sheet metal fabrication benefit from the speed and accuracy advantages of servo-electric technology. Electric press brakes run 30% to 50% faster due to instant ram acceleration and deceleration, while boosting overall productivity by 30% to 50% compared with hydraulic machines.
For heavy-plate applications above 250 tons, hybrid servo-electric hydraulic models, such as the Accurpress Ultimate Line, bridge the gap. These press brakes deliver electric efficiency with the raw force capacity needed for thick material bending in structural steel, shipbuilding, and heavy equipment manufacturing.
How to Choose the Right Accurpress Electric Press Brake
Finding the right Accurpress press brake requires determining the tonnage and bed length selection along with material type, maximum thickness, bend length, and die opening. Under sizing your needs risks damaging the machine, while oversizing wastes capital. Our equipment specialists are here to help fabricators right-size, using application-specific calculations.
Accurpress provides a wide range of features and popular models, such as the Accurpress Advantage, a rugged hydraulic CNC press brake known for its durable rocker arm design, offering high-precision bending.
The Accurpress Accell Series is a high-performance, precision press brake designed for advanced metal bending and features high speed operation.
All Accurpress models can be equipped with specific press brake tooling components and the Accurpress Vision Control, which is an advanced, touch-screen CNC system designed to streamline press brake operations through automatic bending machine sequences.
Shops running 1-2 shifts of precision work at 100 tons to 250 tons generally see the strongest ROI from fully electric models, while 3-shift heavy-plate operations may benefit more from hybrid servo-electric hydraulic configurations that balance efficiency with tonnage capacity.
Beyond the machine specification sheet, look for a partner that provides installation, training, and lifetime service across your region. Capital does just that with 22-state coverage and 41 factory-trained field service engineers. We ensure support doesn’t end at delivery.
Purchase to Production: Installation, Training, and Ongoing Service
Capital manages the full process from pre-delivery site preparation through installation supervision, initial calibration, and operator sign-off. This process minimizes production downtime during the transition from old to new equipment.
Every purchase includes operator training and optional programming training conducted at one of our six regional technology centers, or on-site, ensuring teams can run production confidently without extended learning curves.
Post-installation, our 41-factory-trained field service engineers across 22 states are ready to fix and diagnose your press brake issues. Our engineers have parts-stocked service vans to fix and repair your machines today.
