Intimus S16.50 11.8mm Industrial Strip Cut Shredder Review

By:


The Intimus S16.50 Industrial Strip Cut Shredder is an excellent system for any industry or large office needing to dispose of discontinued or sensitive material. It is built to be easily operated while offering high volume performance. Quality craftsmanship is guaranteed by warranty. Let's take a closer look at the S16.50 11.8mm shredder.

Strengths:

* Automatic and safety features make this device simple and safe to use. Use is controlled by a safety locking key that turns the machine on and off. A reverse jam feature helps prevent the blades from being overfed. If the shredder detects a jam beginning to occur, the blades will reverse the material out and try to re-shred it three times. If it still starts to clog up the blades, the items are fed back to the user for separation. A plastic shield offers protection against potential flying pieces from getting into your eyes. If you reach over the belt toward the blades while the machine is running, chances are before you can touch them your body will lean across the emergency stop bar located on the front, cutting power to the blades before anything accidentally gets caught in them. This helps accidental injuries be avoided.

* A convenient conveyor belt system feeds items into the cutting shafts. Simply set your stack on the large workspace provided and let the shredder do the work for you. Up to an impressive 550 sheets of paper can enter the wide 20 inch opening at once and are devoured at 50 feet per minute. That equals about 1800 pounds of throughput per hour. This device also accepts crumpled papers, credit cards, CDs, floppy disks and three ring binders.

* Narrow strips float down into a extra large waste container. The bin is on casters for easy removal and replacement of the shred bag. Over 118 gallons of waste is stored in the container, minimizing the number of bag changes needed.

* One last benefit of this shredder is the manufacturer warranty. The cutting cylinders are guaranteed for 5 years with a one year warranty on parts and labor.

Weaknesses:

* As with most large pieces of office equipment, this one is heavy, weighing around 1600 pounds. Without casters on the bottom, this machine will be difficult to move around. We suggest using a heavy duty appliance dolly for any relocating you may need to do.

* The strips created only provide a level 1 security rating. While this is fine for all-purpose office shredding, those looking for higher security disposal may be more interested in a cross cut version of this model.

For the rapid shredding of large quantities of low risk documents, the Intimus S16.50 is a great system. Automatic and safety features make it simple to use and helps to avoid accidental injury. Swift, powerful blades get the job done fast. Convenience is seen in the conveyor belt feed system as well as the voluminous waste storage. We would definitely recommend the Intimus S16.50 Shredder to any industry or large business.
