This Horizon ST-R is a used collator — sometimes referred to as a sheet collating machine — currently located in Germany. Collators are used in print finishing workflows to gather, align, and stack individual sheets or sets in a controlled sequence, making them a core component in booklet-making, saddle-stitching, and document assembly lines. Horizon is a well-established Japanese manufacturer of post-press and print finishing equipment, serving commercial printers, trade binderies, and in-plant print rooms worldwide with a broad range of folding, stitching, cutting, and collating machinery.
The ST-R is offered in used, as-is condition and carries a three-month warranty. It supports two stacking modes — flat and laterally shifted — giving operators the flexibility to produce either straight-stacked or offset sets directly from the unit.
Sheet handling covers a maximum sheet size of 450 × 310 mm and a minimum of 185 × 128 mm, accommodating a wide range of standard and non-standard document formats. The maximum stack height is 320 mm, which determines how deep a set or pile the unit can hold before needing to be cleared.
The ST-R is designed for inline integration with a range of compatible Horizon feeding and stitching equipment, specifically the MC-80a, VAC-100a, VAC-60Ha, VAC-1000, and VAC-600 models, making it a natural addition to an existing Horizon finishing line.
The machine's physical footprint is compact: 652 mm in length, 550 mm in width, and 320 mm in height, allowing it to fit within a constrained press-room environment or be added to an existing inline configuration without significant floor space requirements.
