A Plastic Shredder is a machine used to cut plastic into smaller pieces for granulation. Unlike plastic granulators, shredders are designed specifically for larger plastic Waste, like car bumpers, pipes, drums, and other items too big for granulators. In the process, large plastic items are fed into the shredder

Paper shredders cut paper in to particles or strips of varying sizes depending on the security level of your machine. Available in many different sizes, paper shredders are available for your home, office and also industrial use for high volume paper shredding
When paper (or another object) touches the cutting head, a sensor activates and the sharp teeth or knives rotate and pull the paper into their jaws until the paper lies pathetically in pieces in the bin. Keep in mind that there's another set of sensors on the bottom of the lid; when the machine rests on top of the bin, it activates those bottom sensors, which then turn on the sensors that rotate the teeth.
