The paper shredder focuses on 4 points

1 Durability

A shredder to maintain a satisfactory service life in addition to component quality clearance, the choice of cutting tools is particularly important. At present, the strong carbonized steel knife is the first choice, and the good shredder generally uses manganese steel and tungsten steel as the tool material, this steel knife has high hardness, extrusion resistance, wear resistance and other characteristics, so this shredder in addition to having good paper cutting ability also has a low failure rate, high life quality. And with the diversification of confidentiality needs, the complexity of crushing items, the requirements for tools are also getting higher and higher, so the strong carbonized steel knife is essential to the shredder.

2 Degree of confidentiality

From the perspective of consumers' most concerned, shredding method and shredding effect is a key indicator to distinguish the degree of confidentiality, shredding method mainly has three types of granular, segment, strip, shredding effect refers to the size of the paper is broken into particles based on the above three shredding methods.

Grain, foam confidentiality effect is the best, strip, segment effect is relatively nearly, but the smaller the paper is broken, the greater the chance of flying paper, so it is not conducive to environmental protection. And the cutter of the granular shredder is easier to wear, so we can choose the shredding method according to the confidentiality requirements of the documents, such as military documents and important financial data using high-security granular shredder, and the general document destruction can choose segments and strips. Credit cards, floppy disks, optical disks and other information media are also selected according to the needs of different shredders.

3 Degree of safety

First of all, the safe use of the shredder must follow the operation requirements in the instructions, and whether there is a sign warning users on the cover of the shredder to prevent human injury due to operation errors in the operation of the shredder. Secondly, the shredder should also have the automatic power off function of the paper bucket, the automatic protection function of overload, the automatic protection function of the motor overheating, and other intelligent touch response, which can also improve the service life of the shredder under the condition of ensuring the safety of use. Therefore, consumers should pay attention to whether they have these functions when purchasing.
