## Overview

The PROXXON Micromot Thermocut is a battery-powered hot wire cutting device designed for precision model making and crafting. Featuring a large aluminium composite base (390x280mm) with printed grid, a 0.2mm diameter wire heating from 100 to 200°C powered at 10V/1A, and adjustable cutting angles, it ensures smooth, accurate cuts. Safety is enhanced by a LED indicator and insulated transformer, making it ideal for architects, designers, and hobbyists seeking professional-grade results.

The holder and wire coil (30m, 0.2mm diameter is included) may be shifted along the overarm to enable mitre cutting. A LED indicates operation and prevents burnt fingers (the cutting wire heats to maximum in less than 1 second).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this proxon table require a proxon power adaptor? There are Conflicting answers.**
A: Nope. Mine was good to go right out of the box.

**Q: Can i cut circles / discs of 30 cm diameter? can i cut 10-30 degree angles at the side as compared to 90 degree? would this cut plastazote ld70?**
A: Sorry, I know nothing about Plastazote. 
You certainly can do those things you want with the cutter. Take a look at Gerard Boom from the Netherlands. He's got a slew of tutorials showing the many tricks you can perform. https://www.shiftinglands.com. He also sells some nifty tools that make it all pretty easy.
Cheers John

**Q: Hi, do we need to purchase its power supply (transformer) seperately or it comes with it?**
A: The hot wire cutter has its own 240volt power supply built into its base.
There is no need to buy a separate power supply.
John

**Q: There are many types of foam on the market such as styrofoam, polystyrene e.t.c. What type does this Proxxon cut??**
A: I've used styrofoam and polystyrene on mine, but as long as it's a thermoplastic it should work, just check if the material you want to use has a low flash point or gives of toxic fumes when melted.
