Used LVD Hydraulic Guillotine Shears for Sale 25


LVD is a Belgian manufacturer of sheet metal machinery — hydraulic guillotine shears, press brakes, laser cutting machines, and punching equipment. The brand is one of the recognized European names in sheet metal fabrication and is particularly common across French, Belgian, German, and UK fabrication shops. Used LVD shears offer a strong combination of European build quality and established secondary-market support.

Used LVD hydraulic guillotine shears on Exapro cover the MVS, HST, and other LVD shear series across various cutting capacities (typically 4-25 mm) and bed lengths (2,000-6,000 mm). Pricing depends on capacity, length, CNC control type, blade condition, and accessories included. Compare available listings, then submit an enquiry through the listing page on Exapro for full details and seller information.

LVD is a Belgian manufacturer of sheet metal fabrication machinery — hydraulic guillotine shears, press brakes, laser cutters, and punching equipment. The brand is a recognized European name in industrial sheet metal work, with manufacturing facilities in Belgium and global distribution.

On the used market, LVD hydraulic guillotine shears hold their value well thanks to build quality, parts support, and continued OEM service through the LVD dealer network. Exapro listings cover MVS workshop shears, HST production shears, and various older series across capacity ranges. Compare current LVD listings to find the right combination of cutting capacity, length, and CNC control for your sheet metal work.

Key inspection points before buying include blade condition (replacement blades for LVD shears are widely available but represent meaningful cost), hydraulic system integrity, back gauge accuracy and travel, hold-down clamp uniform engagement, and CNC control functionality. Older LVD shears may have NC back gauges or basic digital readouts; modern listings typically include full CNC back gauges with multi-position programming.

Buying a used LVD hydraulic guillotine shear: what to check

Before purchasing any used hydraulic guillotine shear, thorough inspection is essential. For LVD shears specifically, blade condition and hydraulic system integrity are the primary value drivers. Inspect blades for wear, chips, or nicks along the cutting edge — a complete blade set replacement runs €3,000-€8,000 depending on length. Test the hydraulic system for smooth operation under load, consistent pressure, and absence of seal leaks at cylinder points.

Verify the back gauge tracks accurately across its full travel and stops consistently at programmed positions. Test hold-down clamps for uniform engagement across the bed length — uneven hold-down causes inconsistent cuts. Run the shear through several test cuts in representative material thicknesses if possible.

Transport for LVD shears requires flatbed handling and appropriate rigging — production-class shears can weigh 5-15+ tonnes. Confirm machine weight, dimensions, electrical specifications (typically 400V three-phase), and any specific lifting points before delivery. On Exapro, each LVD listing provides specifications, photos, and seller contact. Compare multiple LVD shear listings to find the right capacity, length, and condition for your fabrication shop.
