How much does the Cincinnati XFORMe 90XFe8 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Cincinnati XFORMe 90XFe8 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
Cincinnati's XFORMe 90XFe8 is a hybrid press brake with a 10 ft (3,048 mm) overall die surface. Approach and return speeds are equal at 550 ipm (13,970 mm/min), and forming speed is 70 ipm (1,778 mm/min).
Maintenance is the argument the maker leads with for this drive. The hydraulic system is low-capacity, and in place of traditional hydraulic oil it is filled with a fire-resistant, biodegradable fluid. Cincinnati's claims for that fluid are longer life, safer handling and non-hazardous waste disposal. For a plant with environmental reporting or fire-insurance conditions, those points can weigh as much as cycle time.
The frame dimensions are those of the hydraulic XFORM on this bed length: 14 in (356 mm) of stroke, a closed height of 7 in (178 mm), an open height of 21 in (533 mm) and a throat of 18 in (457 mm). A 5-axis backgage is listed, giving control of gage depth, position, angle and height.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Low-capacity hydraulic system with fire-resistant, biodegradable fluid
- Equal 550 ipm (13,970 mm/min) approach and return speeds
- 10 ft (3,048 mm) die surface with a 14 in (356 mm) stroke
- Thickness compensation (DTC) included as standard
Limitations
- Forming speed of 70 ipm (1,778 mm/min) is slightly below the 75 ipm (1,905 mm/min) of the hydraulic XFORM 90XF8
- Open height is 21 in (533 mm); the XFORMe 175XFe8 gives 23 in (584 mm) on the same bed length
