Overview

The HT-80 is a Horizon three-knife book trimmer for commercial and in-plant binderies that have outgrown single-knife face trims. It squares head, foot, and face for a finished softcover look.

Use it after perfect binding or booklet workflows when client standards require a clean three-side trim. Step up to HT-1000V when variable and higher production throughput demand it.
