Overview

CABS (Computer-aided Binding System) is Horizon's modular production perfect binding platform. The CABS 4000V configuration targets high-performance bookbinding with automated setup and quality control features suited to commercial printers and trade binderies.

Standard Finishing lists CABS in flexible configurations (including CABS 6000 and CABS 4000V). Mid-State Litho quotes the binder modules, glue path (EVA/PUR as equipped), and any inline three-knife (such as HT-110) so the line matches your monthly book volume and stock mix.

Built by Horizon International in Japan. North American distribution through Standard Finishing Systems. Sold, installed, and serviced in Michigan and the Great Lakes by Mid-State Litho.

Why buy Horizon equipment from Mid-State Litho

Horizon International designs and manufactures this machine in Japan. Standard Finishing Systems (SDMC) is the exclusive North American distributor. Mid-State Litho is the authorized Michigan and Great Lakes dealer: we quote the configuration, install it, train your operators, finance it when needed, stock related parts and adhesives, and send factory-trained technicians when something stops a shift.

We work with Horizon and Standard Finishing as long-term allies. We still want the plant manager who searches for a Horizon dealer to land on Mid-State Litho: same-state trucks, multi-brand advice when Horizon is not the only answer, and a phone that reaches people who have installed the line. Call 1-800-343-4231 or request a quote. Browse the full Horizon print finishing equipment catalog.
