How much does the LVD Easy-Form 640/61 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD Easy-Form 640/61 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
The LVD Easy-Form 640/61 is a 6,400 kN press brake with a 6,100 mm (240.2 in) working length. It weighs 57,000 kg (125,661 lb) and has 5,050 mm (198.8 in) between its uprights.
For six-metre heavy plate it is the strongest single machine in the series, and compared with the Easy-Form 500/61 it is the better-powered one. The Easy-Form 500/61 has a 37 kW motor and returns its ram at 80 mm/s. This machine has 55 kW and returns at 100 mm/s, with a 90 mm/s approach and a 9 mm/s working speed. Its tank holds 850 L at 290 bar.
Six metres at this force is the format of serious structural work: crane boom plates, heavy-wall masts, hull plates, the long members of mining equipment. Blanks arrive by overhead crane and are bent in a handful of strokes, and a single spoiled blank can outweigh a week of saved cycle time. That is the setting in which a press brake that measures its own bends is easiest to justify.
LVD's system does so with scanners that follow the angle through the stroke and a control that adjusts the punch at once. Linear encoders, mounted so that frame deflection does not reach them, report the ram position.
Open height is 570 mm (22.4 in) with a 300 mm (11.8 in) stroke, and the gap is 400 mm (15.7 in). Table width, table load and working height are not legible from LVD's table for this group.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 6,400 kN over 6,100 mm (240.2 in), the strongest six-metre Easy-Form
- 55 kW motor, returning at 100 mm/s
- 5,050 mm (198.8 in) between the uprights
- Self-measuring bends on blanks too costly to scrap
- Encoders isolated from frame deflection
Limitations
- 57,000 kg (125,661 lb) to transport and found
- Bends at 9 mm/s, like the rest of the group
- 850 L of oil at 290 bar to maintain
- Table width, load and working height need confirming with LVD

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The Easy-Form 500/61 has 5,000 kN, a 37 kW motor, 650 L of oil and an 80 mm/s return, and weighs 49,420 kg. This machine has 6,400 kN, 55 kW, 850 L and a 100 mm/s return, and weighs 57,000 kg.
02
5,050 mm (198.8 in) between uprights. Longer parts, up to the 6,100 mm (240.2 in) working length, pass through the 400 mm (15.7 in) gap in each side frame.
03
Yes, the Easy-Form 640/80, with an 8,000 mm working length and 7,050 mm between uprights. It weighs 71,550 kg.
04
By linear encoders which, LVD says, are connected to the machine so that deformation during bending does not influence the positioning accuracy of the ram.
