The Barudan BEAT 90X Series was manufactured from 1993 - 1996. The 90X Series was very different from the 80X Series. The Barudan 90X Series came in the Barudan BEAT 902 2-head and BEAT 906 model. There was a 7-needle and a 9-needle model. The Barudan models with YS were the 7-needle machines and the ZN-models had 9 needles (these were the first 9-needle Barudan models produced). The Z in the ZN stands for Flat Head instead of the Turret head original used. The N in ZN stood for 9 needles. The Turret heads were used to allow more working area. The turret heads were not very commonly used after around 1995 but could still be found on newer machines.

Barudan 90X Series Specs

The BEAT 90X series were 286 or 486 PC based and came with an SVGA color monitor and two disk drives (for reading and writing). As with other BEAT Series machines, these models included a keyboard for monogram lettering (and came with lettering fonts and editing software).

The 90X machines came with hard disk drives that had a high failure rate and but can be upgraded with flash drives by PLRElectronics. PLRElectronics is one of the only companies than can successfully repair the electronics on these machines and has the flash hard drive upgrades.
