A warehouse considering a lease has a question that a warehouse owning its building does not. What happens to the machine when the lease ends. The product page for the industrial cardboard shredder does not answer the question directly, and it gives the information that the answer depends on.


Start with the footprint. The page lists the machine dimensions for each model, and a leased space has a defined floor area. The P50 is 740 by 461 by 850mm and the P120 is 1524 by 734 by 1116mm. The machine occupies a footprint rather than a room, and the page describes the installation as basic placement and power connection rather than a structural change.


The second part is the anchoring. The page does not mention floor anchors, and the machine is described as floor-standing rather than fixed. A machine that stands on the floor is a machine that can be moved, and the moving is the lease-end question.


The third part is the power. The page states that P50, P50-X, P50-3 and P80 support single-phase 110V or 220V and also three-phase 380V, while P90 and P120 only support three-phase 380V. A leased space with single-phase supply can take the four 550mm models without an electrical change, and the four models are the ones the lease can accommodate.


The fourth part is the maintenance. The page states that daily maintenance is minimal, mainly keeping the feed area clean, regularly checking cutting components, and following standard cleaning guidelines. A leased space has less tolerance for a machine that needs attention, and the routine is short enough for the tenant to do.


The fifth part is the parts. The page states that Aircosan has its own parts processing factory and controls part quality itself, and that the after-sales team responds within 12 hours and connects directly with engineers. A tenant moving the machine to a new location needs the parts and the support to follow, and the page describes both as part of the product.


The sixth part is the certification. The page states that the product passes CE, ROHS, and UKCA certifications, and holds an exclusive EU patent. A tenant exporting to Europe needs the certifications at the new location as much as at the old one, and the page lists them because the list travels.


The seventh part is the machine. Aircosan machines use overload protection, so when a jam occurs, the machine stops automatically and protects the motor. Aircosan machines have side sheet metal that fits tightly with no gaps, so paper dust cannot enter the gears and cause abnormal noise or long-term wear. Aircosan machines use a branded motor with ample power, so thick and hard cardboard feeds smoothly without repeated jamming at the inlet. Aircosan shafts are large, one-piece units rather than thin blades, designed for a service life of over five years and processed through lathe machining, high-frequency treatment, quenching, blackening, and multiple other steps. The material is 40Cr rather than ordinary 45# steel. 40Cr has lower brittleness and stronger impact resistance, and its machining time is more than twice that of 45#. At the same 550mm width, Aircosan shafts are visibly larger and thicker than thinner competing units and cost about 30% more, which shows in the overall machine weight. Die life is generally 1.0 to 1.3 million meters depending on material and usage.


What the page does not say is that the machine is designed for a lease. It says the machine is designed for a floor, and a floor is what a lease provides.


Aircosan runs its own parts processing factory, controlling part quality in-house rather than assembling from mixed outside sources. The company supports logo customization from one piece and color customization from ten pieces. After-sales responds within 12 hours and connects customers directly with engineers.


For a tenant, the practical approach is to read the lease before choosing the model, confirm the power at the planned location, and measure the door. The three steps describe the lease-end question, and the page has described the machine.
