Durable and reliable electric pencil sharpeners
Automatic pencil sharpeners with all metal construction are ideal for heavy-duty applications. Options with hardened steel cutters are sharp and they last for long periods of time without blunting. Select sharpeners have the push-button cleaning feature that removes shavings from cutters to minimize breakdowns. Those with nonskid rubber feet provide grip for stability and absorb shocks to prevent rattling. Large models come with big receptacles to reduce the frequency of emptying. Transparent and translucent receptacles show users when to empty shavings. Compact sharpeners that can fit into small bags are ideal for artists and engineers who need to carry them when traveling, and the automatic features is more convenient than manual pencil sharpeners.
Automatic pencil sharpeners for schools and offices
Sharpeners for offices and schools come with advanced features such as quiet operation. Their motors can handle extensive work and they have multiple holes to sharpen more types of pencils and crayons. Many automatic sharpeners for schools have antimicrobial additives to help minimize contamination and infection through sharing pencils. Sharpeners come with one, two, or six holes to sharpen different quantities of pencils. Some brands to choose from include Bostitch® pencil sharpeners and:
- X-ACTO®
- Royal®
- Ticonderoga®
- Wescott®
- Quill Brand
Sharpeners come in a variety of colors ranging from black and gray to orange, green, and beige. They easily blend with decor and some have cords over 5-feet long for convenient connection to power outlets.
Smart and safe electric pencil sharpeners
Safety features in pencil sharpeners can help prevent accidents by stopping motors when parts like the receptacles are not in place. Another smart capability available on select models makes the motors quit when pencils are sharp to minimize power consumption and avoid wasting lead. The overheat protection feature on some options stops motors before they become too hot, which helps prevent damage. Several sharpeners have built-in storage to organize pencils.
