How much does the LVD PPEB 500/40 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD PPEB 500/40 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 500/40 concentrates 5,000 kN on a 4,000 mm (157.5 in) bed. It weighs 39,400 kg (86,861 lb), where LVD lists 30,500 kg for the PPEB 400/40 on the same bed.
Buyers arrive at this model with one kind of part in mind: short, very thick, very strong. Armour plate, abrasion-resistant liners, cutting edges and die blocks are bent on short lengths with wide V-openings. For that work two rows of the table matter more than the headline force.
The first is the table rating, 2,500 kN/m on a 200 mm (7.9 in) table. Full force on a die two metres long is at the rating. On anything shorter the rating governs, and the bending plan must respect it.
The second is the cycle. The ram approaches at 100 mm/s, works at 9 mm/s and returns at 80 mm/s, on the 37 kW motor LVD also fits to far lighter machines. With 650 L of oil at 290 bar, this is a hydraulic system built for pressure, and nobody should expect brisk strokes.
The opening is 570 mm (22.4 in) with a 300 mm (11.8 in) stroke, the gap 400 mm (15.7 in) and the clear width 3,150 mm (124.0 in). The bed is at 970 mm (38.2 in). Hydraulic clamping is close to essential with tooling of this weight, and it is an option.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Only within the table rating of 2,500 kN/m. LVD gives no further guidance, so a short, full-force bend needs to be reviewed with LVD and the tooling supplier.
02
LVD lists 39,400 kg (86,861 lb) for this machine and 30,500 kg for the PPEB 400/40. Bed length, clear width, stroke, opening and table are the same.
03
100 mm/s approach, 9 mm/s working and 80 mm/s return. The PPEB 400/40 works at 11 mm/s and returns at 120 mm/s on the same 37 kW motor.
04
LVD limits it to PPEB machines up to 400 ton/4m. This model matches the length but exceeds the force, so the installation should be confirmed.
