How much does the LVD PPEB 220/42 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD PPEB 220/42 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 PPEB 220/42 is a 2,200 kN press brake built around a wide frame. It has 3,820 mm (150.4 in) between the uprights, a 4,270 mm (168.1 in) working length and a weight of 17,000 kg (37,478 lb).
Among PPEB machines of this force it is the widest opening short of five metres. The PPEB 220/40 offers 3,150 mm. What decides between them is whether the work includes parts that cannot go into a side-frame gap: closed frames, four-sided pans, pre-welded assemblies that come back for a last bend.
Useful to know is how LVD treats the foundation. The maker states that PPEB machines up to 400 ton/4m can be installed at floor level. This model is within the force and a little over the length, so the point should be confirmed for it.
Bending data are those of the group. A 37 kW motor, 350 L of oil and 285 bar give 120 mm/s approach, 21 mm/s working speed and 200 mm/s return. The listed stroke is 200 mm (7.9 in), the open height 400 mm (15.7 in) and the table 120 mm (4.7 in) wide at 2,000 kN/m, with the bed at 970 mm (38.2 in).
The weight is nearly that of the Plus version of the four-metre machine. A buyer is in effect choosing between width and height for the same mass, unless both are needed, in which case the PPEB 220/42 Plus exists.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
3,820 mm (150.4 in) between the uprights. The PPEB 220/40 has 3,150 mm. The gap in the side frames is 400 mm (15.7 in) on both.
02
LVD says PPEB machines up to 400 ton/4m can be installed at floor level. The working length here is 4,270 mm, so ask LVD whether the statement covers this model.
03
The PPEB 220/42 Plus keeps the wide frame and adds a 300 mm stroke, 570 mm of open height and a 200 mm table rated at 2,500 kN/m, at a weight of 18,700 kg.
04
120 mm/s approach, 21 mm/s working and 200 mm/s return, from a 37 kW motor with a 350 L oil tank at 285 bar, as on every 2,200 kN PPEB.
