How much does the LVD PPEB 80/20 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the LVD PPEB 80/20 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 80/20 is a two-metre press brake with 800 kN: 2,000 mm (78.7 in) of working length, 1,550 mm (61.0 in) between the uprights and a weight of 6,000 kg (13,228 lb).
LVD lists a smaller-force machine on the same bed, and the pair makes an unusual comparison. The PPEB 50/20 has less force, yet it is the faster of the two, with a 17 mm/s working speed and a 190 mm/s return. This model works at 13 mm/s and returns at 140 mm/s, after a 130 mm/s approach, on an 11 kW motor. What it has in exchange is 800 kN and a deeper gap of 400 mm (15.7 in).
That gap is half the story of a short machine. With only 1,550 mm of clear width, any part between that and the full bed length must slide into the side frames, and 400 mm of depth there accepts most flanges.
The table is 120 mm (4.7 in) wide and rated at 2,000 kN/m, working height is 970 mm (38.2 in), and the listed stroke and open height are 200 mm (7.9 in) and 400 mm. LVD supplies other stroke and daylight combinations in 100 mm steps.
Accuracy rests on a servo-hydraulic system that brings the piston at each end of the ram to its programmed position, with linear encoders measuring the ram independently of frame deflection.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
No. The PPEB 50/20 approaches at 150 mm/s, works at 17 mm/s and returns at 190 mm/s. This model lists 130, 13 and 140 mm/s. It has more force, 800 kN, and a 400 mm gap.
02
LVD's servo-hydraulic system positions the piston at each end of the ram to the value set in the Touch-B control, and linear encoders are connected so that frame deformation does not affect the reading.
03
The Easy-Form 80/20 is the same size and weight with a 15 kW motor, a 22 mm/s working speed and LVD's laser angle system as standard equipment.
04
The oil tank holds 125 L and the system pressure is 290 bar. LVD machines the cylinders from solid steel billet and fits hardened, precision-ground pistons.
