Pressision has responded to growth in demand for stitched booklets and addressed a production bottleneck with investment in a Horizon SPF-200L bookletmaking system from IFS.

The Leeds operation’s mix of offset and digital presses produces creative print, high end brochures, packaging and marketing collateral. Clients include premium brands, design agencies, and publishers.

James Taylor, founder and managing director, explains the investment, saying: ‘Demand for shorter runs, versioned brochures, and high pagination booklets is rising, and the Horizon SPF-200L offers the automation and flexibility to handle that efficiently. It also complements our Horizon BQ-500 PUR ice binder and HT-300 ice trimmer, giving us a well rounded finishing line up.’

He continued, ‘The automation, reliability, and fast set up times make it ideal for our fast turnaround environment. Its compatibility with our existing Horizon equipment made it the natural choice. What stood out for us was the operator friendly touchscreen controls, repeatable accuracy, and the ability to switch quickly between different formats without downtime. It is engineered for efficiency.’

Pressision’s fully automated Horizon SPF-200L bookletmaking system enables use -friendly operation and instant set ups via a large icon based colour touch screen. It runs at speeds up to 4500 booklets per hour and produces a wide variety of booklet formats, ranging from CD to A4 landscape.

As for the expected impact James stated: ‘It will reduce the need to outsource jobs, enable faster throughput, and support tighter turnaround times. The SPF-200L means we can bring more finishing in-house and improve overall productivity. It also strengthens our ability to handle multi-version, short run work more cost effectively, while also giving us confidence to take on larger stitched jobs with consistent quality.’
