The die cushion device includes a first hydraulic cylinder for supporting a cushion pad, and a first hydraulic circuit for driving the first hydraulic cylinder. The first hydraulic circuit is a hydraulic closed circuit including a logic valve connected between a die cushion pressure generation line and a system pressure line, and a hydraulic pump driven by a first servomotor for applying a pilot pressure to the logic valve. The first controller controls the first servomotor (pilot pressure) based on a first pressure command corresponding to the die cushion force and the pressure detected by the first pressure detector to control the pressure in a lower chamber of the first hydraulic cylinder so that the pressure is equal to a pressure corresponding to the first pressure command.
