How much does the LVD PPEB 220/51 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD PPEB 220/51 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
Two PPEB machines bend 5,100 mm at the lighter end of the range, and they are further apart than their names suggest. The LVD PPEB 220/51 has 2,200 kN and a 37 kW motor on a 5,100 mm (200.8 in) working length.
The other is the PPEB 170/51, which runs on 22 kW, works at 15 mm/s and returns at 160 mm/s. This machine works at 21 mm/s and returns at 200 mm/s, with a 120 mm/s approach. It weighs 21,200 kg (46,737 lb), and the PPEB 170/51 weighs 19,500 kg. More force, a quicker bend and little extra mass make it the default choice unless power supply rules it out.
Between the uprights there are 4,550 mm (179.1 in). The bed is at 1,025 mm (40.4 in), the table 120 mm (4.7 in) wide and rated at 2,000 kN/m. Stroke and open height are listed at 200 mm (7.9 in) and 400 mm (15.7 in).
A five-metre brake is a two-person or a mechanised job. LVD's option list for the PPEB is written for that: programmable sheet followers, front supports on guide rails, an additional gauging finger for long edges, and a robot interface.
LVD's statement about floor-level installation covers PPEB machines up to 400 ton/4m. At this length the foundation should be discussed with the maker before the building work is planned.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The PPEB 170/51 has 1,700 kN, a 22 kW motor, a 15 mm/s working speed and a 160 mm/s return at 19,500 kg. This model has 2,200 kN, 37 kW, 21 mm/s and 200 mm/s at 21,200 kg. Bed and frame opening are the same.
02
LVD lists it as an option without description. On a long bed a third finger is normally used to support or locate a long edge between the two standard fingers.
03
LVD's floor-level statement is limited to PPEB machines up to 400 ton/4m. This machine is longer, so the installation should be confirmed with LVD for the specific site.
04
1,025 mm (40.4 in). The Plus version of this length, with a wider and more heavily rated table, stands at 1,055 mm according to the PPEB 220/51 Plus column.
