The Horizon ST-20R is a used pile turner — sometimes referred to as a paper jogger or sheet aerator — a type of finishing equipment used in print shops to loosen, aerate, and align stacks of printed sheets before or after press runs, reducing static and improving feed reliability. Horizon is a well-established Japanese manufacturer of post-press and print finishing equipment, producing machinery for binderies, commercial printers, and digital print environments worldwide.
This particular unit features right-side delivery, which is what the "R" designation indicates in the model name, and this output orientation allows the machine to be integrated into workflows and floor layouts where a standard left- or rear-delivery configuration would be impractical. The stacker accepts sheets ranging in size from 185 × 128 mm up to a maximum of 450 × 310 mm, covering a broad spread of common print formats. Stacking capacity reaches up to 320 mm in height, meaning the operator can accumulate a substantial pile before needing to unload, reducing interruptions during production runs.
Sheets can be stacked either flat or in an offset pattern, giving operators flexibility depending on how the downstream job needs to be organised. The machine is compatible with several other Horizon units, including the MC-80a, VAC-100a, VAC-60Ha, VAC-1000, and VAC-600, making it straightforward to incorporate into an existing Horizon finishing line. The unit measures 652 × 550 mm in footprint and weighs 62 kg.
The machine dates from 2003, is offered in used condition, and is located in Germany. The seller provides a three-month warranty covering correct operation of the machine.
