How much does the LVD PPED 135/30 cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the LVD PPED 135/30 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

With the LVD PPED 135/30 the PPED range reaches the three-metre class: 1,350 kN on a 3,050 mm (120.1 in) working length. It is also where the frame and table get heavier. The table is 180 mm (7.1 in) wide, the gap 250 mm (9.8 in) and the working height 970 mm (38.2 in), all larger than on the PPED 80/25.

It is the first size to which LVD's crowning statement applies without exception. CNC crowning is standard on PPED-5 and PPED-7 models, and only the 50 and 80 ton machines are excluded. On a three-metre bed that matters, because the ram and table bow apart in the middle under load and the angle opens there unless something compensates.

The approach speed is 90 mm/s, slow for the lighter half of the PPED range. The PPED 165/30, on the same bed, approaches at 110 mm/s. Working speed is 10 mm/s and return 95 mm/s, from a 15 kW motor and a 275 L tank. Anyone choosing between the two on throughput should note that the stronger machine is also the quicker one.

Between the uprights there are 2,600 mm (102.4 in). Stroke is 200 mm (7.9 in) and open height 500 mm (19.7 in). The backgauge is programmable in X and R, or in X, R, Z1 and Z2, depending on the version ordered.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

3,050 mm (120.1 in) working length at 1,350 kN
Eligible for standard CNC crowning as a PPED-5 or PPED-7
250 mm (9.8 in) gap and 180 mm (7.1 in) table
15 kW motor, the smallest on a three-metre PPED
Hydraulic components machined in-house from solid steel billet

Limitations

90 mm/s approach, slower than the 110 mm/s of the PPED 165/30
Lowest force of the 3,050 mm PPED models
2,600 mm (102.4 in) between uprights for a 3,050 mm bed
200 mm (7.9 in) stroke limits deep box work

Best For

Three-metre panels in thin to medium sheet First CNC press brake for a growing fabrication shop Parts needing even angles along a long bend Mixed short-run work at moderate cycle rates

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is the PPED 135/30 crowned?

It can be. LVD makes CNC crowning standard on the PPED-5 and PPED-7 versions and excludes only the 50 and 80 ton sizes. The crowning system compensates for deflection of the machine so the bend angle repeats along the length.

02 What is the difference between PPED-4, PPED-5 and PPED-7?

LVD names these as the three models of the product line and says they come with either a 2-axis or a 4-axis backgauge as standard. CNC crowning is standard on the PPED-5 and PPED-7. The page gives no further breakdown of the versions.

03 Should I choose this or the PPED 165/30?

They share the 3,050 mm bed, 2,600 mm between uprights, 250 mm gap and 180 mm table. The PPED 165/30 has 1,650 kN, an 18 kW motor and a 110 mm/s approach. This model has 1,350 kN, 15 kW and 90 mm/s, with a 275 L tank.

04 How tall is the opening?

500 mm (19.7 in) between table and ram with a 200 mm (7.9 in) stroke. Working height is 970 mm (38.2 in). LVD's table lists no option for a taller opening on the PPED; the larger PPED 260/30 has 670 mm as its standard figure.
