The Horizon AC-8000 S MIT is a flexo-folder gluer — a machine designed to print, fold, and glue corrugated or solid board blanks into finished carton boxes in a single integrated pass. This type of equipment is sometimes referred to as a flexo folder gluer or FFG. Horizon is a well-established manufacturer of finishing and converting equipment, with a broad portfolio of machines serving the print, packaging, and paper-processing industries.
This 1997 machine is offered in used condition from a seller based in Germany. It is configured with eight stations and is equipped with a handling feeder, the CF-20 model. The eight-station layout provides capacity for multiple processing steps within the line, supporting the full folding and gluing sequence alongside any flexographic printing passes.
The machine handles paper sizes ranging from A5 through to A3, making it suitable for a range of smaller-format carton work. It accepts stock grammages from approximately 50 to 260 g/m², giving it versatility across lightweight and heavier board materials commonly used in packaging production. A double sheet control system is fitted, helping to prevent misfeeds and the waste associated with overlapping sheets passing through the line.
The seller highlights simple operability and a minimum space requirement as practical characteristics of this machine, noting its compact footprint relative to its capabilities. It is also equipped with a DV pump.
