Yes. These hardware devices are called “computers”. They run software that use the Gutmann algorithm to erase the contents of a hdd.
Today hdds are more likely to be physically shredded in order to destroy the data on them. Faster and less labor intensive and less likely to be used wrong.
I’m sure you can find some Chinese company selling them, but there’s no point: the Gutmann method is designed for hardware that hasn’t been made in the past 30 years. With modern hardware, a simple zero-wipe will stop anyone short of a three-letter agency, and even waving a degaussing wand over it will stop most attackers.
