A High-Security Powerhouse: The Destroyit 4005 SMC

Jan. 19, 2012 - PRLog -- Do you have high security shredding requirements slowing you down? We have many clients who are required to shred their sensitive documents to NSA-rated Level 6 specifications. While a level 6 shredder makes your documents irrecoverable and therefore disposes of them with the utmost security, this security can also have drawbacks. Because of how thoroughly the shredder head cuts up the documents, a level 6 shredder cannot take nearly as many sheets as a level 3 cross cut or a strip cut shredder. This means that it will take a lot longer to shred your documents when shredding them this securely. It is a pain to have to sacrifice time in the name of security, and that is why we would like to present the Destroyit 4005 SMC.

Unlike smaller high-security shredders, the 4005 SMC has the ability to super micro-cut documents at a timely pace. This huge machine’s motor is rated for continuous operation and has a maximum horsepower of 4. This allows it to handle up to 16 sheets at once, a large amount for a high security shredder. Not only that, but the 4005 SMC will turn them into NSA-approved 1/32” x 3/16” particles at a rate of 44 feet per minute! No more standing around the shredder all day, trying to remain patient as you painstakingly insert 5 sheets at a time. Double or even triple your shredding efficiency with the 4005 SMC.

The raw power of the 4005 SMC is accompanied by the useful features for which Destroyit shredders are known and loved. The feature that we like the best and find the most helpful is the Electronic Capacity Control (ECC). This will monitor the shredder’s feed capacity in real time as the shredder is being used, then display the current sheet capacity to the user. When the user knows exactly how many sheets the shredder can take, there is less of a chance that (s)he will overfeed the machine and cause a paper jam. Another feature that will prevent jams is the included automatic oiler. An oiler will lubricate the cutting shaft while the shredder is operating, ensuring a smooth shredding process and extending the life of the shredder. Jams are especially common with high-security cross cut models, and the preventative features are extremely appreciated by users whose shredding goes uninterrupted.
We have found the 4005 SMC to be a great high-security shredder for businesses or government agencies who have level 6 security requirements to meet and a medium-to-high volume of documents to shred.
