Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD Easy-Form 220/40 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
Ask what a subcontract fabricator's main press brake looks like and the answer is often close to the LVD Easy-Form 220/40: 2,200 kN and a 4,000 mm (157.5 in) working length, with adaptive angle control built in.
Its place in LVD's hydraulic range is easy to show with one comparison. The PPED 200/40, LVD's economy machine of similar force and equal length, works at 9 mm/s and returns at 90 mm/s. The Easy-Form works at 21 mm/s and returns at 200 mm/s. Both are four-metre brakes of about the same force; one of them completes a stroke in well under half the time.
Then there is accuracy. The Easy-Form Laser system reads the angle during the bend and corrects it, and the crowning system is machined for the individual machine. The PPED page lists neither laser measurement nor a 37 kW drive.
The machine weighs 15,300 kg (33,730 lb). It has 3,150 mm (124.0 in) between the uprights and a 400 mm (15.7 in) gap. Approach speed is 120 mm/s. Stroke and open height are 200 mm (7.9 in) and 400 mm in the listed form.
Two neighbours are worth knowing. The Easy-Form 220/40 Plus has a 300 mm stroke and 570 mm of open height. The Easy-Form 220/42 trades a little more mass for 3,820 mm between the uprights.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The PPED 200/40 has 2,000 kN, an 18 kW motor, 9 mm/s working speed, 90 mm/s return and 500 mm of open height. This machine has 2,200 kN, 37 kW, 21 mm/s, 200 mm/s and 400 mm, plus the Easy-Form Laser system.
02
A robot interface is on LVD's option list, for connecting an industrial robot at purchase or later. Automatic tool changing is a different product: the ToolCell 220/40 has the same force and length with tools stored inside the machine.
03
15,300 kg (33,730 lb). For comparison, the Easy-Form 220/40 Plus is listed at 17,200 kg and the Easy-Form 220/42 at 17,000 kg.
04
Besides the laser system, LVD lists a barcode reader as standard and quick-acting hydraulic clamping as an option. Programs can be prepared offline in CADMAN-B and loaded at the 19-inch Touch-B control.
