How much does the LVD Easy-Form 500/45 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD Easy-Form 500/45 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 500/45 has 5,000 kN, a 4,500 mm (177.2 in) working length and 3,760 mm (148.0 in) between its uprights. It weighs 42,200 kg (93,034 lb).
The frame opening is slightly tighter than the 3,820 mm LVD gives the Easy-Form 320/45. At 5,000 kN the side frames are thicker, and the clear width shrinks accordingly.
For very heavy plate this is arguably the practical size of the 5,000 kN group. The four-metre Easy-Form 500/40 has only 3,150 mm between its uprights. Here a stiff part can be more than half a metre longer and still pass through, and thick plate parts cannot be bowed into a gap. The cost is mass: 39,400 kg for the Easy-Form 500/40, 42,200 kg here.
Speeds are those of the group: 100 mm/s approach, 9 mm/s working, 80 mm/s return. The motor is 37 kW and the tank 650 L at 290 bar. Open height is 570 mm (22.4 in) and stroke 300 mm (11.8 in). Working height is 970 mm (38.2 in), and the 200 mm (7.9 in) table is rated at 2,500 kN/m.
LVD's options suit the application. Hydraulic clamping spares the operator from tightening long, heavy tools by hand, and programmable sheet followers carry the plate as it swings up.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
3,760 mm (148.0 in) between the uprights, for a working length of 4,500 mm (177.2 in). Parts longer than the opening can enter the side frames to a depth of 400 mm (15.7 in).
02
The Easy-Form 500/40 has a 4,000 mm bed, 3,150 mm between uprights and weighs 39,400 kg. This model has a 4,500 mm bed, 3,760 mm between uprights and weighs 42,200 kg. All other rows are the same.
03
Quick-acting hydraulic clamping on the ram and on the table is an option on the Easy-Form. LVD presents it as a way to faster set-ups; with tools sized for 5,000 kN it is also a matter of effort.
04
290 bar, a 37 kW motor and a 650 L oil tank. The ram approaches at 100 mm/s, works at 9 mm/s and returns at 80 mm/s.
