Proxxon THERMOCUT - Hot wire cutter for cutting polystyrene and thermoplastic film

Proxxon THERMOCUT 230/E Hot Wire CutterFor model making by architects, designers, decorators, artists (also for practical work in applied art) and for prototype construction. Stable frame and 390 x 280 mm surface made of aluminum composite material. Structured surface, allowing an even gliding of the part to be cut. The screen-printed frame and the design of the corners facilitate practical work. Solid aluminum bow (350 mm reach and 140 mm passage height). With clamp and spool (supplied with 30 m of wire Ø 0.2 mm). Mitre cuts are possible by sliding the clamp. An LED light prevents burning of fingers, as the hot wire reaches full temperature in less than a second.The correct temperature (depending on material and thickness) is determined with a little sensitivity and practice. The correct temperature (depending on the material and thickness) is determined with a little sensitivity and practice, but an optimal cut is achieved with a measured temperature and pressure.Important: Thanks to the integrated isolating transformer and the class 2 insulation protection, this device is perfectly safe. The heating elements operate with a current of 10 V at 1 A.
