How much does the Cincinnati XFORM 90XF6 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Cincinnati XFORM 90XF6 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
With an 8 ft (2,438 mm) overall die surface, the Cincinnati XFORM 90XF6 is the shortest machine on the main XFORM frame, the one with an 18 in (457 mm) throat. Stroke length is 14 in (356 mm) between a 7 in (178 mm) closed height and a 21 in (533 mm) open height.
No XFORM moves its ram faster between bends. The table gives 650 ipm (16,510 mm/min) for approach, 75 ipm (1,905 mm/min) for forming and 565 ipm (14,351 mm/min) for return, and both the approach and the return figure are the highest printed for the series. For parts with several bends each, that travel speed is where the seconds are saved.
The page names a 5-axis backgage as XFORM equipment, along with a 24 in touch screen that runs Bend Simulation software with automatic bend sequencing and interference checking. Buyers who need programmable crowning or a 6-axis backgage will find both on the premium list.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 650 ipm (16,510 mm/min) approach and 565 ipm (14,351 mm/min) return, the top figures in the XFORM table
- 18 in (457 mm) throat on an 8 ft (2,438 mm) die surface
- 14 in (356 mm) stroke and 21 in (533 mm) open height for tall tooling
- 5-axis backgage listed as XFORM equipment
Limitations
- 8 ft (2,438 mm) die surface; the XFORM 90XF8 offers 10 ft (3,048 mm) with the same ram figures
- Open height is 21 in (533 mm), short of the 23 in (584 mm) on the XFORM 175XF8
- Programmable crowning is a premium feature, not base equipment

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The overall die surface is 8 ft (2,438 mm). Throat is 18 in (457 mm), so sheet can pass well into the housings when a part overhangs the space between them.
02
Bed length only, as far as the table shows. The XFORM 90XF8 has a 10 ft (3,048 mm) overall die surface and the XFORM 90XF6 has 8 ft (2,438 mm). Stroke, heights, throat and all three ram speeds are identical.
03
Yes. The XFORMe 90XFe6 has the same die surface, stroke and throat, with ram speeds listed at 550 ipm (13,970 mm/min) approach, 70 ipm (1,778 mm/min) forming and 550 ipm (13,970 mm/min) return.
