How much does the LVD Easy-Form 640/45 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD Easy-Form 640/45 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 6,400 kN group is the top of the Easy-Form series, and the LVD Easy-Form 640/45 is its shortest machine: a 4,500 mm (177.2 in) working length, 3,760 mm (148.0 in) between uprights and 49,300 kg (108,686 lb).
This is where LVD finally changes the motor. After a long run of smaller motors the 6,400 kN models have 55 kW, with 850 L of oil at 290 bar. The effect shows in the return stroke, which is 100 mm/s. The Easy-Form 500/45, with 37 kW, returns at 80 mm/s. Approach is 90 mm/s and working speed 9 mm/s.
No four-metre version exists at this force. The series starts at four and a half metres, which says something about the parts LVD expects: plate thick enough to need 6,400 kN is seldom bent in short pieces on a machine of this cost.
Open height is 570 mm (22.4 in), stroke 300 mm (11.8 in) and gap 400 mm (15.7 in). LVD's table for this group prints the units of the table-width, table-load and working-height rows out of step, so those three values cannot be read reliably and should be taken from the quotation.
Even at this size the machine is an Easy-Form in the full sense. The laser system, the crowning made for the machine and the 19-inch Touch-B control are all part of it.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 6,400 kN on a 4,500 mm (177.2 in) bed
- 55 kW motor with a 100 mm/s return
- 3,760 mm (148.0 in) between uprights
- 570 mm (22.4 in) open height and 300 mm (11.8 in) stroke

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The Easy-Form 500/45 has 5,000 kN, a 37 kW motor, 650 L of oil and an 80 mm/s return at 42,200 kg. This machine has 6,400 kN, 55 kW, 850 L and a 100 mm/s return at 49,300 kg. Bed length and frame opening are the same.
02
LVD's table for the 6,400 kN models prints those rows with units that do not belong to them, so the values cannot be read with confidence. The Easy-Form 500/45 has a 200 mm table rated at 2,500 kN/m; ask LVD to confirm the figures for this model.
03
No. The group consists of this model, the Easy-Form 640/61 with a 6,100 mm working length and the Easy-Form 640/80 with 8,000 mm.
04
90 mm/s on approach, 9 mm/s in the bend and 100 mm/s on return. LVD's table for this group carries the usual notes about CE safety limits on working speed.
