DAHLE 616 High-Security Document Shredder

The DAHLE 616 is a professional high-volume document shredder designed for departments, organizations and businesses that handle confidential information on a regular basis. Its combination of high-security micro-cut technology, powerful performance and large waste capacity makes it suitable for intensive document destruction requirements.

The shredder provides a P-6 security level and produces extremely small particles measuring only 0.8 × 12 mm. This micro-cut particle size significantly reduces reconstructed document content and provides a high level of protection for sensitive information.

With a wide 400 mm entry width, the DAHLE 616 provides convenient document feeding and supports professional departmental workflows. It can shred up to 11 sheets of 80 g/m² paper per pass and operates at a shredding speed of approximately 4 m/min.

The integrated automatic oiling system, continuous-duty operation and powerful 1650 W motor allow the DAHLE 616 to handle demanding workloads while maintaining dependable cutting performance.
