Automated Processing of Digitally Printed B2 Sheets

SmartStacker

The Horizon SmartStacker can convert a B2-size sheet into up to 28 individual cut sheets. The system can also run inline or nearline to serve multiple print sources with a sheet feeding capability of up to 4,500 sheets per hour.


Overview
Full bleed trimming:

With variable gutter cuts and adjustable edge trimming, the SmartStacker can ensure accurate margins for full bleed images.

Highly adaptable:

The system can deliver finished products such as posters or postcards, straight or offset stacks, individual sets or book blocks, or it can bypass to inline finishing for saddlestitching, perfect binding, or folding.

No manual intervention:

The highly automated SmartStacker ensures faster job turnaround with less waste and errors, resulting in higher productivity, quality, and profitability.

SmartStacker Testimonials

“I had seen the SmartStacker once or twice on visits to Standard Finishing's showroom and this time I went there to specifically look at it. We installed it at the beginning of November 2021 and cut several million Christmas cards during that peak season. And that was without taking advantage of barcode automation, which we are now in the process of implementing. Plus, we're looking at using it for book blocks, taking that workload off the guillotines as well. ”

Brian Scott
CEO, Blooming Color

“We would not have made it through that peak season without the SmartStacker. It was phenomenal, and the team from Standard Horizon has been really good to us with exceptional support. ”

Rosemarie Breske Garvey
President, Blooming Color
