This Horizon AFC is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder — designed to automatically fold sheets into brochures, inserts, flyers, and similar printed materials. Horizon is a well-established manufacturer in the print finishing industry, producing equipment for binderies, print shops, and commercial printing operations worldwide. This particular unit was built in 2000 and is currently located in Germany.
According to the seller's technical data, the machine accepts sheet sizes ranging from a minimum of 120 × 172 mm up to a maximum of 490 × 650 mm, giving it the flexibility to handle a broad variety of common printed formats. It accommodates paper weights between 40 and 250 g/m², meaning it can process everything from lightweight leaflet stock through to heavier cover-weight materials. The feeder stack height reaches up to 650 mm, reducing the frequency of reloading during longer production runs.
In terms of output, the machine is rated at a production speed of up to 27,000 cycles per hour, making it well suited to medium and large volume folding work. Power requirements are 400 V, 50 Hz at 2.5 kW, consistent with standard three-phase industrial supply as found across European installations.
The machine's physical footprint is 2,540 mm long by 1,790 mm wide by 1,440 mm tall, with an approximate weight of 870 kg. This should be taken into account when planning floor space and any handling or installation arrangements. The unit is offered in used condition, with signs of use that may be expected of a machine of its age.
