How much does the LVD PPEB 220/40 Plus cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD PPEB 220/40 Plus 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
A four-metre bed, 2,200 kN and a tall opening: the LVD PPEB 220/40 Plus lists 570 mm (22.4 in) between table and ram, a 300 mm (11.8 in) stroke and a table 200 mm (7.9 in) wide rated at 2,500 kN/m.
It weighs 17,200 kg (37,919 lb) and stands with its bed at 1,000 mm (39.4 in). Working length is 4,000 mm (157.5 in), with 3,150 mm (124.0 in) between the uprights.
For a buyer weighing this against LVD's economy range, the nearest model is the PPED 260/40. The PPED 260/40 has 2,600 kN and still more daylight, 670 mm, but it bends at 10 mm/s and returns at 80 mm/s on a 22 kW motor. The Plus bends at 21 mm/s and returns at 200 mm/s on 37 kW, after a 120 mm/s approach. On a deep part, where the ram travels a long way on every stroke, return speed counts for more than usual.
The Plus also makes sense of several PPEB options. Sheet followers earn their keep on long, deep parts, which swing up through a large arc. Hydraulic clamping saves time when tall segmented tools are built up along four metres. Both are on LVD's list.
Under the cladding the hydraulics are standard PPEB: 285 bar, 350 L, cylinders cut from solid billet, and a servo system that positions each end of the ram to the value in the Touch-B control.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The PPED 260/40 has 2,600 kN, 670 mm of open height, a 22 kW motor and speeds of 90, 10 and 80 mm/s. The Plus has 2,200 kN, 570 mm, a 37 kW motor and speeds of 120, 21 and 200 mm/s.
02
The Plus is listed at 17,200 kg (37,919 lb) and the PPEB 220/40 at 15,300 kg. Bed length, frame opening, motor and speeds are unchanged.
03
By a servo-hydraulic system. LVD states that it brings the piston at each end of the ram to the programmed position set in the Touch-B control, which gives a correct bend angle under each piston.
04
Yes. The 200 mm (7.9 in) table rated at 2,500 kN/m is the one listed for the PPEB 320/30 and the heavier models.
