BENEFITSEASY SETUP
Icon based touchscreen provides quick and easy setup without any manualadjustment. Fully-automated setup enables any operator to produce
consistent, high quality folds with efficiency and high productivity.
HIGH PRODUCTIVITY
Advanced automation technology reduces set-up time dramatically.
High speed production is achieved with belt speeds of 270 m / min.
APPLICATION FLEXIBILITY
Flexible machine configurations and a variety of options allow for a wide
range of applications.
STATUS RECOGNITION
The LED lights in the AFV-56S indicate the operational status by switchingcolors to identify the system status at a glance. The lights serve as white
working lights when the cover is open. The color of the lights can be chosenfrom the touch panel.
MANAGE YOUR BINDERY WITH HORIZON'S BINDERY CONTROL SYSTEM

KEY FEATURES FOR MORE PRODUCTIVITY.
Advanced automation to bring your operation to the next level.

ADJUSTMENT FOR SKEWED FOLDS AFV-566SF/SA, AFV-564SF/SA■ The sheet register guide angle and buckle plates are automatically set by entering
the sheet size and fold pattern at the touch-screen. With automated guide angle
adjustment precise folds can be produced without highly skilled or experienced
operators.

ROLLER GAP ADJUSTMENT AFV-566SF/564SF■ All fold roller gaps are automatically set by inserting a single
strip of paper. Gap setting is completed according to the sheet
thickness and fold pattern. Set-up time is greatly reduced with theelimination of sheet insertion for each roller gap.
■ Fine-adjustment of all fold roller gaps is possible in a micron unit
via the touch-screen.

AUTOMATED REGISTER CONVEYOR AFV-566SF/SA, AFV-564SF/SA■ The vacuum register guide sets automatically according to the sheet width. Sheets
are properly aligned to the guide for folding accuracy.
■ Five vacuum chambers adjust automatically for sheet length, and coated or
uncoated surface. The vacuum can be adjusted individually based on sheet condition
and the setting can be memorized for easy recall.
■ Efficient blower motors insure long lasting performance and energy efficiency.

RIGHT-ANGLE REGISTER CONVEYOR TV-566SF/SA, TV-564SF/SA■ Conical drive rollers are used for accurate sheet registration with minimal
adjustment required.

SCORING NAVIGATOR AFV-566SF/564SF■ Scoring navigator allows operator to adjust accurate scoring and perforation
positioning with easy setup procedure.
■ Scoring position can be adjusted incrementally by 0.1 mm.
■ Settings can be saved to memory for recall on reoccurring jobs.

Cross Folder AFV-56S / TV-56S Series

BRIDGE CONVEYOR (BGV-56 / BGV-56BBS) Option■ Bridge conveyor is on a slide rail for easy access to the scoring shafts.
■ Smooth transfer of sheets to the 2nd fold section, presser stacker or delivery conveyor.
■ The BGV-56BBS automatically adjusts to maintain center registration at the BBS-40
book block stacker.

DYNAMIC FOLD Option
Optional dynamic buckle plate is available for changing the fold patterns on-the-fly for book production.
For example, 12 page and 8 page signatures can be produced consecutively to reduce blank pages in the book.

Newly designed suction head andfeeding system enables easy setup andconsistent feeding. Innovative suction
head and assist air* provide accurate
sheet separation and pick-up. Blowing
air volume and height of the suction
head can be adjusted according to thesheet condition for stable feeding for awide variety of printed materials.

Quality polyurethane rotor provides
high speed feeding without scratching.
The suction angle adjustment enables
stable feeding by adjusting theangle of suction air according to thesheet condition. The supersonic andphotoelectronic double feed detectsensors come standard for superior
double feed protection.

*The assist air kit SAB-56V with adjustable nozzle

8 BRIDGE CONVEYOR

The register guide is coated with a
special anti-static plating, for troublefree folding of printed sheets, evenin dry climates, where static can be a
problem. The register guide ensures
stable transportation and accurate
registration of a wide range of paper
stocks. Newly added cover provides
noise reduction and safe operation. All
the sections set-up automatically andthe operator does not need to open
the cover for the change over process.
Newly designed sheet control reduces
waste when a feed error happens.
Mis-fed sheets are stopped prior toentering the fold section for easy
operator removal.

Uniquely designed buckle plate
enables improved folding accuracy
and consistency for a wider rangeof substrates, including thin or lightweight sheets. Specially-coated buckle
plates minimize paper friction tomaintain fold accuracy. When feedingfrom a printed roll, the uniquely
designed automatic gate mechanism ofdynamic buckle plate enables changing
fold patterns on the fly.
