Uncertain

We do not have a price for the LVD PPEC 170/32 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.

LVD PPEC 170/32 — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the LVD PPEC 170/32 that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so this page shows no number rather than a guess. A quote from LVD or an authorised dealer is the reliable figure.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

The LVD PPEC 170/32 is the strongest PPEC on the 3,200 mm (126.0 in) bed with the light frame: 1,700 kN, a 220 mm (8.7 in) stroke and a table 100 mm (3.9 in) wide. LVD offers the series in non-CE markets only.

Force goes up and working speed comes down a little. This model bends at 13 mm/s, the PPEC 135/32 at 15 mm/s. Approach and return are unchanged at 200 mm/s and 180 mm/s. The tank grows to 350 L, and servo motor power is printed as 13.2/15 kW.

The frame dimensions are those of the two lighter models: 2,600 mm (102.4 in) between the uprights, a 410 mm (16.1 in) throat and 460 mm (18.1 in) from table to ram. That last figure is where a buyer should stop and think. Material that needs 1,700 kN usually needs larger dies and taller punches, and 460 mm fills up quickly. The PPEC 220/32 adds daylight, a 250 mm stroke and a 180 mm table, at the cost of a much taller machine.

This one is 3,500 mm (137.8 in) long, 1,800 mm (70.9 in) wide and 2,650 mm (104.3 in) high. It runs the PPEC-5 axis set, Y1-Y2-X-V-R.

Front sheet supports come with it. Hydraulic clamping, which LVD describes as quick-change, is an option worth pricing at this force.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

  • 1,700 kN in the compact 3,200 mm (126.0 in) PPEC frame
  • 200 mm/s approach and 180 mm/s return retained
  • 2,650 mm (104.3 in) overall height
  • 410 mm (16.1 in) throat depth
  • Quick-change hydraulic clamping available

Limitations

  • Offered for non-CE markets only
  • 13 mm/s working speed, below the 15 mm/s of the PPEC 135/32
  • 460 mm (18.1 in) open height is tight for heavy tooling
  • Table 100 mm (3.9 in) wide, against 180 mm on the PPEC 220/32
06

Best For

Medium-gauge parts up to 3,200 mm outside CE markets Buildings with limited headroom for a taller brake Work that needs force more than daylight

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How does the PPEC 170/32 differ from the PPEC 220/32?

The PPEC 220/32 has 2,200 kN, a 250 mm stroke, 485 mm of open height and a 180 mm table, and is 3,200 mm high. This model has 1,700 kN, a 220 mm stroke, 460 mm, a 100 mm table and a height of 2,650 mm.

02 What are the speeds?

Approach 200 mm/s, working speed 13 mm/s and return 180 mm/s. LVD's PPEC table carries no footnotes about speed limits.

03 Is there a longer bed at this force?

Yes. The PPEC 170/40 has the same force, stroke, opening and speeds on a 4,000 mm working length, with 3,150 mm between the uprights.

04 What motor power is listed?

The table prints 13.2/15 kW for the servo motor of this size and does not explain the two values. The oil tank holds 350 L.
