Horizon VAC 100

Horizon VAC 100 (feed trays)

The tower-type machine with a rotary-pneumatic sheet feeding system is equipped with vacuum wheels and blowing, which ensures stable and high-quality separation of the top sheet and its reliable grip, stepwise adjustment of the suction force of the disks, an adjustable separator, the possibility of separate adjustment of the pneumatic lines of the trays depending on the type of paper and its weight. All this allows you to select coated and uncoated papers, cardboard, as well as laminated materials in any combination, eliminating marking and skewing of sheets at any selection speed, regardless of the type of materials.

Friendly Touch&Work interface (click and work) provides simple and intuitive line control, displays self-diagnosis data, and also reminds about the need for service work.

This greatly reduces the cost of effort and time for changeover from circulation to circulation, reduce the amount of waste and produce a quality product almost from the first copy, as well as reduce the time for setting up the line and its maintenance.

The feeding and passage of the sheet is monitored by a control system: non-feed (skipping) sensors ), sheet jams, double sheets, sheet failures, and empty trays.

Standard 10-tray towers can be assembled in a line with the ability to collate in two directions. The maximum number of towers in one line is six (a total of 60 trays).

For in-line production of brochures, Horizon VAC 100 collating towers are equipped with SPF wire stitching modules and FC end trimming modules (stitching on 2 heads, folding ) the most effective is to use the SPF-200A model, which comes in combination with the FC-200A end trimming module, or the SPF/FC-200A module introduced in 2008 with an enlarged format, speed up to 4,900 cycles/hour and expanded order memory capacity up to 200 programs . In addition, the SPF -200A is equipped with a system that gives a signal if the wire in the feeder runs out or gets stuck.
