At HID 2025, attendees had the opportunity to see the first ever inline Horizon iCE STITCHLINER Mark V with Canon’s varioPRINT iX3200 B3 sheetfed inkjet press. This inline solution allows users to achieve one-pass booklet production at a very high level of quality. During the show attendees will see A4 magazine and booklet production with this solution in the Canon booth.
The Horizon iCE StitchLiner Mark V sets a new benchmark in booklet production, offering an innovative and highly automated solution for modern print finishing. A key highlight is its seamless integration with the Hunkeler Cutter CS8 and Unwinder UW8, enabling continuous processing from roll-fed media to finished, stitch-bound brochures – streamlining workflow efficiency while reducing both time and costs.
Designed for precision and automation, the system effortlessly handles digital printing materials, consistently producing high-quality, stitch-stitched booklets with minimal manual intervention. Automatic settings optimize productivity, reducing potential errors and maximizing operational efficiency.

Dynamic format and thickness changeovers between booklet jobs are managed via code reading, eliminating the need for operator intervention. The system's intuitive interface allows for easy job switching, making it particularly userfriendly and adaptable.
By integrating with the Hunkeler Cutter CS8 and Unwinder UW8, the iCE StitchLiner Mark V ensures a continuous paper feed and smooth production process, making it the ideal choice for print service providers seeking maximum efficiency, flexibility, and quality.
