How much does the Yawei PBH(A)-400/5100 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Yawei PBH(A)-400/5100 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
Five metres and 4,000 kN: the Yawei PBH(A)-400/5100 is the mid-length model of the three 4,000 kN machines in the PBH(A) series. Its table is 5,100 mm (200.8 in) long.
The working space is that of the heavier frame class. A 510 mm (20.1 in) throat, 315 mm (12.4 in) of slider stroke and 520 mm (20.5 in) of opening height are shared with the PBH(A)-400/4100 and the PBH(A)-400/6200, so tooling and bend programs move between the three without change. Only length and column spacing differ; here the columns are 4,200 mm (165.4 in) apart.
Is the extra metre over the four-metre model worth it? The weight row answers part of that. This machine is listed at 35,500 / 31,000 kg (78,263 / 68,342 lb), where the PBH(A)-400/4100 prints 27,000 / 25,000 kg (59,524 / 55,115 lb). The frame also stands taller, at overall dimensions of 5,400 x 2,160 x 3,880 mm (212.6 x 85.0 x 152.8 in).
Drive figures are a 30 kW (40.2 hp) motor, a 1,050 L tank and slider speeds of 110 mm/s; 8.5 mm/s; 100 mm/s.
Yawei's description of the series applies in full: electro-hydraulic servo synchronisation under closed-loop control, a dual-rail ram with self-lubricating material, worktable crowning and throat deformation compensation. For plate at five metres, the crowning system is what keeps the angle constant along the bend.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
4,000 kN nominal force, 5,100 mm (200.8 in) table length, 4,200 mm (165.4 in) column spacing, 510 mm (20.1 in) throat opening, 315 mm (12.4 in) slider stroke and a 30 kW (40.2 hp) main motor.
02
Two. The PBH(A)-400/4100 has a table of 4,100 mm (161.4 in), and the PBH(A)-400/6200 one of 6,200 mm (244.1 in). Throat, stroke and opening height are the same on all three.
03
The printed speeds are 110 mm/s; 8.5 mm/s; 100 mm/s. They are unlabelled; read in the usual order they are approach, pressing and return, and they match the other 4,000 kN models.
04
The overall dimensions are 5,400 x 2,160 x 3,880 mm (212.6 x 85.0 x 152.8 in). Yawei prints a total weight of 35,500 / 31,000 kg (78,263 / 68,342 lb), two figures with no stated difference.
