How much does the Onsrud 165X cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Onsrud 165X 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
The Onsrud 165X is the shortest model of the X-Series, Onsrud's lighter 5-axis line for extrusion machining. It has a work area of 21 x 14 in (533 x 356 mm), a 28 in (711 mm) Z-stroke and an 18 hp (13.4 kW), 24,000 rpm spindle.
Onsrud positions the X-Series below the EX-Series and says so directly: heavy-duty applications are referred to the EX. The differences show in the table. The X machines are 131 in (3,328 mm) wide and 140 in (3,556 mm) high, and the spindle starts at 18 hp where the EX starts higher.
The 165X is 292 in (7,417 mm) long. It lists up to 10 clamps and 1 material stop zone. On this series the automated clamping system is described as an option, so the base machine and the automated one should be compared line by line in the quotation.
A 33 hp (24.6 kW) spindle is the single upgrade in the specification block, and a 400mm saw blade is offered for cut-off work. Twelve tools are standard. For window, door and light structural profiles in aluminum or plastic, that is a complete machine; for thick-walled structural sections it is the wrong series.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Machine length is 292 in (7,417 mm), with a width of 131 in (3,328 mm) and a height of 140 in (3,556 mm). It is the shortest X-Series model.
02
Onsrud refers heavy-duty applications to the EX-Series. The 165X has an 18 hp (13.4 kW) standard spindle and a 28 in (711 mm) Z-stroke; the equivalent 140EX lists 33 hp (24.6 kW) and 40 in (1,016 mm).
03
Up to 10, with 1 material stop zone as standard. Onsrud describes the automated clamping system on the X-Series as an option.
04
With the 400mm saw blade option, yes. Onsrud lists it together with specialized clamping systems for cutting extrusions and pultrusions.
