The Horizon PST-40 is a used folding machine — sometimes referred to as a paper folder — designed to crease and fold printed sheets with precision and consistency. Horizon is a well-established manufacturer of post-press finishing equipment, supplying booklet makers, folders, collators, and related machinery to the commercial printing and graphic arts industries worldwide.
This particular unit was manufactured in 2007 and is located in Germany. It is configured as a mobile folding sheet press with stream delivery, meaning sheets are fed in an overlapping stream rather than as single separated sheets, supporting efficient throughput. The machine includes height adjustment operated at the touch of a button, allowing the operator to set the inlet height anywhere between 280 mm and 1,000 mm to suit different working positions and downstream equipment.
The pressing function delivers a maximum pressing pressure of 20 kN, and this pressure is adjustable to suit different materials and fold requirements. The sheet format range runs from a minimum of 60 × 64 mm up to a maximum of 440 × 310 mm, accommodating a broad variety of common print formats. Processing speed ranges from 50 to 230 metres per minute, giving the operator flexibility between careful, controlled output and high-volume production runs.
Power requirements are 230 V at 50/60 Hz with a motor draw of 0.9 kW, making it suitable for standard single-phase industrial supplies. The machine measures 1,100 × 800 × 1,450 mm and has a stated weight of 280 kg. It is noted that the machine can be operated either online — integrated into a production line — or offline as a standalone unit, adding to its flexibility in different print finishing workflows.
