## Overview

The PROXXON Micromot Thermocut is a professional-grade hot wire cutter featuring a robust aluminium cobond base (390x280mm) for smooth workpiece handling, a variable temperature wire (100-200°C) that heats up in under a second, and a safe, insulated power system delivering 10V at 1A. Ideal for architects, designers, and model builders seeking precision, versatility, and safety in one sleek tool.

## Description

The large base with 390 x 280mm table with surface of aluminium cobond compound ensures smooth and easy movement of the workpiece. The printed grid and protractor ease division and cutting. The solid aluminium overarm has a 350mm throat and offers 140mm capacity in height. 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).

Review: Perfect! - Couldn't be happier with the Proxxon or the vendor, everything was on time & delivered safely. If you're serious about building terrain for your ttrpgs the Proxxon is a must buy. Solid build, easy set up & hugely versatile, 5 stars. I arrived here via the Black Magic Craft affiliate link, be sure to select the European/Uk version if you'll be using inside the EU, otherwise you'll require a step down transformer.
Review: Best foam cutter you can buy - The guide rail is rubbish and wobbly. That said, this is a fantastic hot wire cutter otherwise. Feels sturdy and works well. Definitely worth it.

## 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best foam cutter you can buy

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cuts polysterene foam with ease and precision
*by O***O on 14 October 2024*

.. and was featured in a Youtube video with Adam Savage. So it must be good... right? It is fine. Not five stars because it is a bit hollow-sounding and lightly built. But does the job of cutting foam with ease and precision.
