Product Description

The Proxxon Hot Wire Cutter Thermocut. The large table with 15 11/32" x 11" (390 x 280 mm) and the working surface of the Aluminum Cobond compound ensure smooth and easy movement of the workpiece. The printed grid and protractor assist with division and cutting. The solid aluminum overarm has a 13 3/4" (350 mm) throat and offers 5" (140 mm) in height. The 5 1/2" holder and wire coil (98 ft, 0.008" diameter is included) may be shifted and adjusted along the overarm to enable miter cutting. An LED indicates operation and helps prevent burnt fingers (the cutting wire heats to the maximum temperature in less than 1 second). Note: The correct temperature, being dependent on material and thickness, is learned from experience. Optimum profiles are cut at lower temperatures while applying less cutting force.
