How to choose a confidential shredder?

If the paper documents discarded by enterprises are directly discarded, it is likely to cause leaks. At this time, using a shredder can avoid water leakage. Confidential shredder refers to a product with a relatively high level of confidentiality. We can buy it by looking at the security level, the material of the object to be processed, the amount of paper processed, the speed of shredding and the brand. When choosing a shredder, you should also pay attention to the cutter and the price, and then let's have a look with Bian Xiao. How to choose a confidential shredder?

1, depending on the security level

The more shredded the paper, the more difficult it is to repair, and the higher the confidentiality level. In the market, the confidentiality level of shredders is generally divided into shredding, shredding and shredding from high to low, while the confidentiality level of confidential shredders should be at least three, that is, the probability of data recovery should be less than 8% and the confidentiality should be higher than 92%. The higher the security level you need, the stricter the requirements of the shredder you need. For places with general confidentiality requirements, the mid-range shredder is a suitable and economical choice.

2. Look at the material of the processing object

Most shredders are designed to handle paper, usually paper or paper strips. If you plan to shred the computer printout, you'd better choose a model with a wide entrance, so that the paper can directly enter the machine for processing. There are also some shredders that use paper hoppers to handle crumpled paper. Some special shredders can also handle credit cards, videos or floppy disks.

3. Look at the amount of paper processed

The amount of paper that the shredder can handle is another factor to consider. The key factors in this regard are the amount of paper used per unit, that is, the amount of paper that can be swallowed at one time, and the processing speed. The higher the security level of the security shredder, the lower the amount of paper processed at one time. Because the shredder is not designed to run at the maximum capacity all the time, it is best to consider the model with a capacity about 25% larger than you need when purchasing, so as to avoid machine damage.

4. Look at the speed of paper shredding

The paper shredding speed must match the paper shredding quantity. The amount of shredded paper is low, but the speed of shredded paper is too high, which will make shredded paper curl, make the bag containing shredded paper need to be replaced frequently, and produce a lot of dust. So be sure to choose the right machine. Generally speaking, the minimum speed of a shredder should be no less than 0.5m per second, that is, it can handle 6400 sheets of paper per hour.

5. Look at the brand

Big brands often have guaranteed product quality, good after-sales service, mature production technology, reasonable price positioning and strict state supervision. Consumers can choose suitable confidential shredder products according to their actual needs.

What should I pay attention to when buying a shredder?

1, pay attention to tools

The cutter of paper shredder is an important part of the whole machine, which consists of cutter head and transmission assembly. Its materials are manganese steel, tungsten steel and ordinary carbon steel. There are many shredders on the market, only the cutter head is made of metal and the transmission parts are made of plastic. Due to the characteristics of plastic itself, this kind of pulverizer is far inferior to all-metal cutter in terms of service life, mechanical reliability and transmission efficiency, so consumers must carefully distinguish it.

Step 2 pay attention to the price

Affordability is an important criterion for purchasing shredders. After all, it is not cost-effective to spend a lot of money to buy a shredder with high security level. For households with low requirements for shredding, there is no need to buy electric products, and ordinary hand shredders are enough. If enterprises use products with higher requirements, they can consider products with higher confidentiality level.
