Investorcom Enhances Bindery with Standard/Horizon Finishing System from KKBR Graphics

InvestorCOM, an investor communication solutions company, installed a HOF-400 with SPF/FC-200A, High-speed Sheet Feeder and booklet-making system. Purchased from KBR Graphics, the Canadian distributor for Standard/Horizon Finishing, which was the second complete automated system purchased since 2014.

InvestorCOM added the second high-speed sheet feeder and booklet-maker to their previous investment of a Standard/Horizon Stitchliner 5500 with HOF-400. “The simple to use automation makes it easy to operate and the non-stop production helps InverstoCom keep up with increased production demands.” says Steve Klaric, sales manager at KBR Graphics. “Their first high-quality reliable booklets system had surpassed their expectations and it was a straightforward decision for them to expand with a second system.”

The HOF-400 is a high-speed Sheet Feeder and was configured to run in-line with the Standard/Horizon SPF/FC-200A booklet-making system. Variable page count production can be handled with integrity and verification using the standard mark reader, which the operator can quickly change between top and bottom reading for different applications. The HOF-400 can feed up to 45,000 sheets per hour (8.5″ x 11″) and can accommodate a maximum sheet size of 14″ x 24″. Its 7″ color touchscreen monitor allows easy and intuitive setu. The system can also accommodate sheet feeding, cover feeding, accumulating, and manual feeding depending on the job requirements.

The SPF/FC-200A is a high-performance inline booklet-making system with collating, stitching, folding and fore-edge trimming. Outputting up to 4,500 books per hour, it features 200-program job memory storage for instant recall, and an icon-based touchscreen for fast, easy job set-up.
