Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Salvagnini B3 240/6100 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 Salvagnini B3 240/6100 has the longest table in the B3 range, 6,100 mm (240.2 in), with 240 tons of bending force. No other B3 table is as long.
Six metres in one hit is for parts that cannot be joined: lighting columns and poles in sections, crane and conveyor covers, long roofing and facade profiles, vehicle side rails. The distance between the side frames is 5,600 mm, and the throat is 520 mm deep. Maximum stroke is 450 mm with a 700 mm table-ram distance.
Length has a price in dynamics. Approach and return speed is 180 mm/s, where the B3 240/5100 reaches 220 mm/s. On parts this size handling time usually outweighs ram time, so the difference is smaller in practice than on paper, but it is there.
Plan the installation carefully. Total length is 7,400 mm, width 2,080 mm, height 3,705 mm, and the mass is 23,500 kg (51,808 lb). Average consumption is 2.5 kWh. The standard pair of front sliding shelves has a capacity of 120 kg, which a six-metre blank in medium gauge can exceed; the optional FLW sheet followers carry up to 150 kg each and are recommended by Salvagnini for particularly large or heavy pieces.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Longest B3 table at 6,100 mm (240.2 in)
- 5,600 mm between the side frames
- 240 tons with a 450 mm stroke and 700 mm table-ram distance
- Average consumption of 2.5 kWh, the same as the shorter 240 ton models
- Optional FLW sheet followers for large or heavy pieces
Limitations
- Approach and return speed of 180 mm/s
- Total length of 7,400 mm and mass of 23,500 kg (51,808 lb)
- 240 tons over 6,100 mm limits thickness on full-length bends
- Front sliding shelves are rated at 120 kg, so heavy long blanks need FLW followers

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The B3 240/6100 has the longest table, 6,100 mm (240.2 in). Its side frames are 5,600 mm apart, so parts up to that length pass between them; longer parts are limited by the 520 mm throat depth at the frames.
02
Approach and return speed is 180 mm/s and bending speed is 15 mm/s. The B3 240/5100, one size shorter, is listed at 220 mm/s on approach and return.
03
The machine is 7,400 mm long, 2,080 mm wide and 3,705 mm high, with a mass of 23,500 kg (51,808 lb). Salvagnini's page gives no foundation data, so request the installation drawing before preparing the floor.
04
The pair of front sliding shelves has a capacity of 120 kg. For particularly large or heavy pieces Salvagnini recommends the optional FLW sheet follower; each FLW has a maximum capacity of 150 kg.
