Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD Easy-Form 500/61 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
Six metres and 5,000 kN make the LVD Easy-Form 500/61 the largest Easy-Form that still runs on a 37 kW motor. Working length is 6,100 mm (240.2 in); weight is 49,420 kg (108,951 lb).
The motor rating is worth dwelling on. LVD fits 37 kW from the Easy-Form 170/30, which works at 22 mm/s, all the way up to this model, which works at 9 mm/s. The same power is turned into ever more force, and only the Easy-Form 640/61 and its group get 55 kW. On this model the return, at 80 mm/s, is slower than the approach at 100 mm/s.
There is an interesting neighbour. The Easy-Form 640/45 weighs 49,300 kg, practically the same, and has 6,400 kN on a shorter bed with a 55 kW motor and a 100 mm/s return. A shop whose heavy parts are under four and a half metres might prefer it. This machine is for those whose parts are long.
The frame clears 5,050 mm (198.8 in) between the uprights. Stroke is 300 mm (11.8 in) and open height 570 mm (22.4 in); the 200 mm (7.9 in) table is rated at 2,500 kN/m and stands at 970 mm (38.2 in). The tank holds 650 L.
Typical work: long wear liners, heavy mast sections, ship plates with knuckle bends, large chassis members. Each is a costly blank, and the series' in-process angle correction is aimed squarely at getting it right once.
