Overview
Fourteen feet of bed is the headline of the Cincinnati XFORM 230XF12: its overall die surface is 14 ft (4,267 mm), the longest the XFORM table offers and one it shares only with the largest frame.
The ram and the opening are carried over from the XFORM 230XF10. Stroke is 16 in (406 mm), open height 23 in (584 mm), closed height 7 in (178 mm) and throat 18 in (457 mm). The table gives 550 ipm (13,970 mm/min) for approach, 35 ipm (889 mm/min) for forming and 430 ipm (10,922 mm/min) for return.
A bed this long is usually bought for one of two reasons. Either the parts themselves are long, as with lighting poles, truck body panels or long door frames, or the shop wants to stage three or four tool setups across the bed and finish a part in one handling. The 5-axis backgage listed for the XFORM helps with the second, since each station can gauge at its own depth and height. Ask about programmable crowning as well; it is a premium feature, and uniform angle over 14 ft depends on it.
