Processing of Paper by Shredder
When paper is processed by a shredder it goes through a series of steps to convert it into small pieces or 
strips, depending on the type of shredder being used. Here is a general overview of the process:

1. Feed the Paper: Insert the paper into the shredder's feed slot or hopper. Some shredders can 
accommodate multiple sheets at once, while others may require feeding them one at a time.

2. Cutting Mechanism: The shredder's cutting mechanism, which can consist of blades or rotating cutters, 
grabs and pulls the paper into the machine.

3. Shredding Process: As the paper enters the cutting mechanism, it is either sliced into narrow strips (strip-cut shredders) or cut into smaller particles (cross-cut or micro-cut shredders).

4. Collection Bin: The shredded paper is collected in a bin or container located beneath the shredder. This 
bin can typically be emptied and replaced when full.

5. Continuous Operation: Industrial shredders are designed for continuous operation, allowing you to feed paper continuously without any significant pauses or cool-down periods.

6. Additional Features: Some shredders come with additional features, such as automatic paper feeding, jam detection and clearing systems, and safety mechanisms to prevent accidents.

It's important to note that the shredding process may vary slightly depending on the specific model and type of shredder being used. Additionally, different shredders have varying levels of security based on the cut 
size, with cross-cut and micro-cut shredders producing smaller particle sizes for higher security.
