LVD Easy-Form® precision press brakes are based on LVD’s PPEB Series, equipped with state-of-the-art hydraulics and electronics, and offered in multi-axis configurations to suit a broad range of bending applications.
Designed with the operator in mind, Easy-Form and PPEB press brakes are now more functional and user-friendly. An optional LED lighting system illuminates the back gauge and front work zone areas to provide better operator visibility and increased worker safety. Status lighting built into the press brake ram covers offers a visual indication of the machine’s operation status, enabling more effective shop management to achieve higher throughput.
All Easy-Form® press brakes now feature the new and exclusive Touch-B graphical user interface touch screen control . Touch-B is LVD’s latest generation 19” touch screen control, anew intuitive, intelligent and powerful PC based CNC control which allows users to shorten ‘Art to Part’ time and to ensure optimal bending results are achieved from the first part. Complete with an on board Windows® operating system and LVD’s CADMAN-B 3D programming software. Touch-B utilises a totally new icon driven touch screen system to allow users to release the full potential of LVD’s bending technology.
Touch-B works with LVD’s ‘Intelligent database system with thousands of previous ‘real’ bending results being held in the machine. LVD’s interactive databases store all the ‘live’ data the users will need including, optimised flange lengths, bend allowances, angle corrections and spring-back.
A press brake stands as one of the most powerful tools in metal fabrication, designed specifically for bending sheet and plate metal into precise shapes and angles. Learning how to use a press brake — also known as brake pressing — combines technical knowledge with disciplined safety practices and attention to detail.
