and three ring binders.

Industrial sized shredders offering high
capacity are not hard to find. But one to take note of is the Intimus
S16.50 Industrial Cross Cut Shredder. Built to combine high volume
performance with security, this device is both efficient and easy to
use. Large quantities of outdated and secure information are quickly
destroyed by the strong cutting shafts. Here is a closer look at the
S16.50.

Strengths:

• Ease of use is given by the many automatic and
  safety features. Operation is controlled by a safety locking key
  that turns the device on and off. A plastic curtain hangs in front of
  the opening and protects the user from any potential flying
  particles. As items slide down the conveyor belt into the blades,
  a sensor detects possible overfed paper. The reverse jam feature kicks
  in to reverse and re-feed the materials. After three
  unsuccessful tries, the items are fed back to the operator for
  separation. An emergency shut down bar stretches across the front
  of the shredder. It is activated by pressure to prevent someone
  from leaning against it while reaching for the blades. Power is removed
  from the cutting shafts to help avoid accidental injuries.
• A large workspace offers storage for piles waiting to be
  shred. The convenient conveyor belt system allows you to simply
  toss stacks onto the belt and the machine will feed the items into
  the wide 20 inch opening. As many as 550 sheets can enter at
  once and shred as fast as 50 feet per minute. That equals
  approximately 1800 pounds of throughput in one hour. This
  device can even take in credit cards, CDs, floppy disks, and three ring
  binders.
• A large 118 gallon waste container
  catches the paper shreds. Casters on the bottom allow it to easily
  slide out for simple removal and replacement of the shred bag.
• One
  additional bonus of this shredder is the manufacturer's warranty.
  Parts and labor are covered for one year while the cutting
  shafts are guaranteed for 5 years.

Weaknesses:

• Weighing around 1600 pounds when empty, this is one
  hefty piece of equipment. Unfortunately only the waste bin is on
  casters, not the entire unit. If you need to move it, we suggest
  using a heavy duty appliance dolly to help you.
• The
  small pieces created by the blades only earn a level 2 security
  rating. For generic office shredding and low risk documents,
  this is an adequate rating. However, for confidential information,
  you might prefer the higher security, smaller cross cut version of
  this model, the S16.50 6mm x 15mm-50mm, which offers a level 3
  security rating.

For the industrial disposal of large
quantities of expired and sensitive data, the Intimus S16.50 is
perfect. Convenience and efficiency meet in the automatic features and
powerful blades. Sturdy cutting shafts dice up huge stacks at once
and swiftly leave your documents in tiny, unreadable pieces. We think
the Intimus S16.50 is an excellent choice for your next industrial
shredder.
