Full-featured Auto Setup & Production System for Flexos

Horizon can be installed on old Flexos, giving them a second chance at a productive life. From registration control during production to quality control reports, Horizon provides you with a variety of tools to stay a step ahead of the competition.

Currently helping box-makers improve the production on various brands of Flexos, Horizon can be installed on any machine that has electric register motors. Installation is simple and quick, and does not affect your existing controls. With our various brackets and adapters, most installations can be accomplished over a weekend.

Check out a few of Horizon's features, which can be enabled or disabled on your Flexo to best fit your organization's needs. 

Automatic Setup

Using our Box Wizard, setup is quick, simple and accurate.  Linear axes are set-up in under 30 seconds; rotary axes are set-up in under 45 seconds. New specs can be created remotely or at machine center in under 1 minute, with no practical limit to the number of specs stored in the database.

 

Tracker

Tracker, a powerful feature of Horizon, monitors and maintains registration during the production run, ensuring registration and increasing productivity and quality. Using a unique method to monitor and maintain registration during the production run, Tracker will automatically adjust the registration if it sees movement in the sheets due to warp or movement in the downs due to brake slippage.

 

Production Assistant

The reporting engine for Horizon, the Production Assistant provides over 20 reports and quality analysis tools that may be viewed locally or remotely, printed, or programmed to be automatically emailed to the appropriate personnel. These reports are compatible with many 3rd party products, including Crystal reports.

 

Heads Up Prompts

Designed to improve operator performance and protect machinery, these audio and visual prompts alert operators - motivating them to be prepared for problems that might increase the total setup time and keeping them informed of how they're doing in relation to the standard. These prompts are configurable to fit your company's specific needs, and include 20 user defined messages - based on either the machine kick count or the die cut section count.
