Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD PPEB 320/45 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 LVD PPEB 320/45 extends LVD's 3,200 kN PPEB to a 4,500 mm (177.2 in) working length and, more to the point, to 3,820 mm (150.4 in) between the uprights. It weighs 25,500 kg (56,217 lb).
The machine it will be compared with is the PPEB 320/40. The PPEB 320/40 has a 4,000 mm bed with 3,150 mm between the uprights, and weighs 23,000 kg. Speeds, motor, stroke and opening are identical in the two columns: 120 mm/s approach, a 14 mm/s bending speed, 130 mm/s return, 37 kW, 300 mm (11.8 in) and 570 mm (22.4 in).
So the decision is about part size alone. Plate parts are stiff. A sheet-metal panel can be eased into a side-frame gap; a plate part with a return flange cannot, and the clear width between the frames becomes its true length limit. For dump-body floors, large bucket backs and heavy covers, the wider frame is the one that fits.
It is also the largest 3,200 kN PPEB with a bed at 1,000 mm (39.4 in). The PPEB 320/51 stands at 1,035 mm.
The table is 200 mm (7.9 in) wide and rated at 2,500 kN/m. Oil volume is 400 L at 285 bar. LVD's floor-level statement runs to 400 ton/4m, so at this length ask how the frame is to be founded.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 3,820 mm (150.4 in) between uprights at 3,200 kN
- 4,500 mm (177.2 in) working length
- Stiff plate parts pass through that the PPEB 320/40 cannot take
- Bed height held at 1,000 mm (39.4 in)
- 2,500 kN/m table, 200 mm (7.9 in) wide
Limitations
- 25,500 kg (56,217 lb), against 23,000 kg for the PPEB 320/40
- 14 mm/s working speed and 130 mm/s return
- Foundation to be confirmed beyond 400 ton/4m
- Clamping of heavy tools is manual unless the hydraulic option is taken

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The PPEB 320/40 has a 4,000 mm bed, 3,150 mm between uprights and weighs 23,000 kg. This model has a 4,500 mm bed, 3,820 mm (150.4 in) between uprights and weighs 25,500 kg. The other rows match.
02
A stiff part with flanges cannot be flexed into the side-frame gap. It has to pass between the uprights, so the 3,820 mm (150.4 in) opening sets its length limit.
03
1,000 mm (39.4 in), as on the shorter 3,200 kN models. The longer PPEB 320/51 is listed at 1,035 mm and the PPEB 320/61 at 1,165 mm.
04
LVD makes that statement for PPEB machines up to 400 ton/4m. This machine is longer than four metres, so the point should be confirmed for it.
