Ameri-Shred's conveyor-fed shredders begin with our Light Duty Industrial series. This series consists of four models, the AMS-300, AMS-500, AMS-750, and AMS-1000 operating on three phase power and ranging from three to ten horsepower. (Also available with cross-cut capability.) These models will realistically shred four hundred to twelve hundred pounds of material per hour.
I wanted to let you know how satisfied we are with the AMS-300 we purchased from Ameri-Shred. As you are aware, we are a production facility that operates with mentally and physically challenged adults. The AMS-300 has been a reliable, safe and productive machine for our folks to operate. Your attention to the details of our needs was greatly appreciated.

Precision ground, 4 1/4 diameter "A-2 tool steel cutters with a positive saw-tooth grip will shred not only paper but corrugated boxes, credit cards, transparencies, microfilm, etc. An optional automatic cutter head lubrication system is available.
A paddle wheel crusher, located just ahead of the cutters, enables these versatile machines to crush and shred wastebasket contents, corrugated boxes and even steel and aluminum beverage containers.
