Description of the Ameri-Shred AMS-4000 Strip Cut Industrial Shredder
To achieve maximum efficiency, these Ameri-Shred's undergo extensive engineering and field testing to match an operators ability with shredding speed. Those demanding mid volume destruction will be impressed with the 40 HP Ameri-Shred AMS-4000 strip cut industrial shredder. Tackling bulky items quickly and efficiently, the AMS-4000 destroys between 3,250-6,000 lbs. per hour. In total, this strip cut shredder is powerful enough to destroy several tons per day. Unlike its Series 1 and Series 2 predecessors, the Series 3 industrial shredders offer four different shred widths. Your once solid materials are reduced to 5/16" , 3/8" , 1/2", or 5/8" strips. Throughput depends highly upon the shred size selected. The larger the strip size, the greater the shredding capacity. For the highest volume, the AMS-4000 breaks materials down into 5/8" strips, resulting in between 5,000-6,000 lbs. destroyed each hour. Load materials onto the large 20" W x 71.5" L infeed conveyor, and watch as they enter the cutting chamber. While the output conveyor is optional, this additional unit drastically speeds up operation.
At the core of this unit lies the technologically advanced, fine tuned cutter assembly with self-sharpening, A-2 steel and positive sawtooth grip. These precision ground cutters handle everything from stacks of computer paper, letterhead, phone books, and more. The distinctive design of the AMS-4000 promises effortless maintenance and the highest level of safety. On the whole, this unit offers technological advancements, making it superior to almost any of shredder in its class. Available in 208, 230, or 460 voltage, the AMS-4000 runs on 3 phase power. Need to reposition this shredder? While many units would pose a problem regarding relocation, the AMS-4000 is mounted on heavy duty casters designed for transporting the shredder. And good thing too: the AMS-4000 weighs 5,000 lbs. Although an exceptional standalone unit, when matched with a T-3 box dumper, output conveyor & baler, the AMS-4000 maximizes efficiency for high volume document destruction and recycling. A paper metering system is available for this unit, which automatically feeds this shredder at a constant rate for maximum production.
