This listing is for a used saddle stitcher accessory — specifically a stitching wire control unit manufactured by Horizon, located in Germany. Saddle stitchers, sometimes referred to as saddle staplers, are finishing machines used in the print and bindery industry to collate and staple folded sheets through the spine, producing booklets, brochures, catalogues, and similar saddle-bound publications. Horizon is a well-established Japanese manufacturer of post-press and print finishing equipment, supplying booklet makers, paper folders, cutters, and stitching systems to commercial printers and in-plant print operations worldwide.
The item on offer is a Horizon stitching wire control unit, designed to monitor wire consumption during the stitching process. Its function is to detect when the stitching wire is running low before it is fully exhausted, preventing the wire from being completely used up and requiring re-threading through the stitching head. This is a practical workflow aid that reduces downtime on a stitching line by alerting the operator to replace the wire spool before the head runs dry. According to the seller's notes, this unit is compatible with the Horizon SPF-200A saddle stitcher.
The unit is offered used and is currently located in Germany.
