Description of the device:
The Thermocut 12/E cuts foam materials, such as polystyrene, with a max. 400°C
hot wire. A wire, twistable into any shape, and the manifold adjusting possibilities of
the retaining clip offer a high degree of flexibility and thus the greatest possible free-
dom while designing work pieces: The top holder can be set to different angles, and
it is also possible to extend the levers: This gives you all of the possibilities to design
the desired profiles.
The frame in the rear area was flattened making it possible to cut larger sheets: This
requires less space and can be more easily inserted through the slot. The generous
work piece height makes it possible to process thicker work pieces as well, or to
manufacture broad profiles.
We provided an ergonomically shaped and comfortable pistol grip for precision
guidance of the device, which also enables longer and effortless working. This
makes the Thermocut 12/E excellently suited for designing railway dioramas, for
work on architecture modelling, while constructing prototypes, etc.
The infinitely variable cutting wire temperature can be adapted to different condi-
tions: With a bit of practice, an optimal cutting result is guaranteed.
A replacement cutting wire is available under the article number 28082. Length x
Diameter 200 x 0.85 mm here as well
