How much does the Bystronic Xpert 40 cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a cnc press brake in this class — not a quote from Bystronic. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Bystronic Xpert 40 is a compact servo-hydraulic press brake: 40 tonnes (400 kN) of pressing force on a 1,250 mm working length. It is not in Bystronic's current lineup, so the listed figures are a guide for someone considering a machine already in use.
Size is the point of this model. With 860 mm between the uprights and a 350 mm throat, it is a brake for small parts, brackets and short flanges. Its approx. 3,200 kg weight is far easier to place than the ~8,500 kg (18,739 lb) of the Xpert 150. The ram approaches at 150 mm/s and returns at 130 mm/s, and working speed is programmable from 1–12 mm/s, so cycle time on small parts is governed more by handling than by the ram.
The back gauge is listed with 2 axes as standard, X and R. That covers straight flanges of constant depth; parts needing tapered or sideways-offset gauging are outside what these figures show. Y-axis positioning accuracy is ±0.02 mm and the control is Bystronic ByVision Bending.
One caution on the table itself: it carries two stroke rows, 160 mm and 314.96 mm, and an open height of 430 mm beside a daylight of 500.38 mm. Measure the stroke and the opening on the machine in question before choosing tooling.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Compact frame: 1,250 mm working length and approx. 3,200 kg machine weight
- 40 tonnes (400 kN) of pressing force with a servo-hydraulic drive
- Approach speed of 150 mm/s and return speed of 130 mm/s for short cycles on small parts
- Y-axis positioning accuracy listed at ±0.02 mm
- Bystronic ByVision Bending control
Limitations
- Only 860 mm between the uprights, so longer parts must stay within the 350 mm throat depth
- Back gauge is 2 axes standard (X, R); no further gauge axes are listed
- 40 tonnes (400 kN) rules out thick plate and long bends in heavier sheet
- The table shows conflicting stroke figures (160 mm and 314.96 mm), so the real stroke must be measured

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed figures give 40 tonnes (400 kN) of pressing force and a working length of 1,250 mm. The distance between uprights is 860 mm, so parts longer than that have to fit within the 350 mm throat depth.
02
The table lists 2 axes as standard, X and R: flange depth and gauge height. No optional axes are listed for this model, so if a part needs angled or sideways-offset gauging, check what the individual machine is fitted with.
03
Approach speed is 150 mm/s, return speed 130 mm/s and working speed is programmable from 1–12 mm/s. The drive is servo-hydraulic and Y-axis positioning accuracy is listed at ±0.02 mm.
04
Machine weight is listed as approx. 3,200 kg. For comparison, the Xpert 150 is listed at ~8,500 kg (18,739 lb) with a 3,100 mm (122 in) bending length, so the Xpert 40 is the one to consider where floor space or floor loading is tight.
