How much does the LVD Easy-Form 400/61 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD Easy-Form 400/61 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
Here is a curiosity of LVD's table. The LVD Easy-Form 400/61, a 4,000 kN press brake with a 6,100 mm (240.2 in) working length, weighs 37,000 kg (81,570 lb). The Easy-Form 320/61, with 3,200 kN on the same length, weighs 36,000 kg.
So a quarter more force comes at almost no extra mass, and with a much lower bed. Working height here is 970 mm (38.2 in); the Easy-Form 320/61 is listed at 1,165 mm. For a buyer deciding between the two six-metre plate machines, those two rows weigh heavily. The lower bed changes how parts are loaded and whether a platform is needed at all.
What the stronger machine gives up is speed. It works at 11 mm/s and returns at 120 mm/s, with a 100 mm/s approach. The Easy-Form 320/61 lists 14, 130 and 120 mm/s.
Both leave 5,050 mm (198.8 in) between the uprights, and both have 570 mm (22.4 in) of open height on a 300 mm (11.8 in) stroke. Table rating is 2,500 kN/m on a 200 mm (7.9 in) width.
Long plate parts at this force include heavy-wall poles, girder flanges and the side plates of large vehicles. They are handled by crane, bent a few times each and inspected. The laser angle system shortens that last step, since the angle is known when the ram lifts. The hydraulic system uses a 37 kW motor and 500 L of oil at 290 bar.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 4,000 kN across 6,100 mm (240.2 in)
- 970 mm (38.2 in) working height on a six-metre plate machine
- 37,000 kg (81,570 lb), close to the weight of the Easy-Form 320/61
- 5,050 mm (198.8 in) between the uprights
- Angle known when the ram lifts, by laser measurement
Limitations
- Working speed of 11 mm/s and return of 120 mm/s
- Parts between 5,050 mm and 6,100 mm must use the 400 mm (15.7 in) gap
- 37 kW motor for 4,000 kN of force
- Foundation for 37,000 kg (81,570 lb)

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The Easy-Form 320/61 has 3,200 kN, weighs 36,000 kg, works at 14 mm/s and has a 1,165 mm working height. This machine has 4,000 kN, weighs 37,000 kg, works at 11 mm/s and has a 970 mm working height. Force and bed height favour this one; speed favours the other.
02
5,050 mm (198.8 in) between the uprights. The gap in the side frames is 400 mm (15.7 in) for parts that use the full 6,100 mm (240.2 in).
03
Two. The Easy-Form 500/61 has 5,000 kN and weighs 49,420 kg, and the Easy-Form 640/61 has 6,400 kN with a 55 kW motor and weighs 57,000 kg.
04
A table 200 mm (7.9 in) wide rated at 2,500 kN/m, under an open height of 570 mm (22.4 in). Hydraulic clamping on ram and table is an option.
