Description
About the FD 8730HS
The Formax FD 8730HS puts two destruction systems in one cabinet: a high-security paper shredder and an optical media destroyer, each with its own feed opening and waste bin. It meets NSA/CSS requirements for both High Security Cross-Cut Paper Shredders and CD Optical Media Destruction Devices. The paper side is NSA Level P-7 high security cross-cut, shredding up to 15 sheets at once at up to 23 feet per minute into particles of just 1/32 x 3/16 inch. The CD side shreds up to 2,000 CDs per hour into 1/16 x 5/32 inch particles and handles all types of CDs and credit cards.
Build quality matches the mission: steel gearing, an all-metal cabinet on casters, and lifetime-guaranteed waste bins. The EvenFlow Automatic Internal Oiling System keeps blades lubricated during use, the control panel includes a digital load indicator, and ECO Mode switches to standby after 5 minutes of inactivity. This unit is drop shipped.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it really handle both paper and discs?
Yes — separate cutting systems, feed openings and waste bins for paper and for optical media, including credit cards.
How many sheets at once?
Up to 15 sheets per pass, at up to 23 feet per minute.
How does the FD 8730HS compare to the FD 8732HS?
Both put a high-security paper shredder and an optical media destroyer in one cabinet with separate feed openings and waste bins, and both rate P-7 on paper. They differ on the media side. The FD 8730HS is built for disc volume, running up to 2,000 CDs per hour into a 1/16 in x 5/32 in particle, and takes up to 15 sheets of paper at up to 23 feet per minute at 1/32 in x 3/16 in. The FD 8732HS trades disc throughput for a finer particle, rated O-6 at 2 x 2 mm or less but at up to 800 discs per hour, with paper at 10 to 11 sheets per pass, up to 18 fpm and a 1 mm x 5 mm particle. Pick the FD 8730HS for high disc volume, the FD 8732HS when the media particle size has to be as small as possible.
