How much does the LVD Easy-Form 220/51 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD Easy-Form 220/51 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
The LVD Easy-Form 220/51 bends up to 5,100 mm (200.8 in) with 2,200 kN. It is the second of the five-metre Easy-Form machines and the first with enough force for more than light gauge at that length.
Beside the Easy-Form 170/51 the differences are modest in size and significant in use. Weight is 21,200 kg (46,737 lb), where the Easy-Form 170/51 weighs 19,500 kg. Approach speed is 120 mm/s and working speed 21 mm/s; the Easy-Form 170/51 lists 180 mm/s and 22 mm/s. Both have 4,550 mm (179.1 in) between the uprights. What the buyer gets for the lost pace is more force on every bend.
The bed stands high. Working height is 1,025 mm (40.4 in), and the table is the narrow 120 mm (4.7 in) type with a 2,000 kN/m rating. Stroke and open height are 200 mm (7.9 in) and 400 mm (15.7 in) in the listed configuration.
Five-metre blanks are heavy and floppy, and handling tends to cost more time than bending. Three of LVD's options address that directly: front supports on guide rails, programmable sheet followers, and a robot interface.
The drive is a 37 kW motor on a 350 L tank at 285 bar, returning the ram at 200 mm/s. Angle correction by the Easy-Form Laser system is standard, and on a part this size a scrapped first piece is expensive enough to make that matter.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Force and pace. The Easy-Form 170/51 has 1,700 kN, approaches at 180 mm/s and weighs 19,500 kg. This model has 2,200 kN, approaches at 120 mm/s and weighs 21,200 kg. Bed length and frame opening are the same.
02
1,025 mm (40.4 in). LVD lists the same figure for the Easy-Form 220/61, the 6,100 mm machine of this force; the Plus versions are higher still.
03
Front supports on guide rails, two programmable sheet followers that hold the plate during the bend, and a robot interface for connecting an industrial robot. All three are options.
04
Yes, as the Easy-Form 220/51 Plus: 300 mm stroke, 570 mm of open height, a 200 mm table rated at 2,500 kN/m and a weight of 23,400 kg.
