and thermoplastic films. The cutting wire temperature is pre-selected to suit the material with the practical rotary knob and is kept constant electronically while working with the device. In addition to the screw clamp, the scope of delivery includes a spool with 30 m cutting wire Ø 0.2 mm. For cutting polystyrene or rigid foam, hot wire cutters are vastly superior to all other tools such as knives and saws. It is important to determine the correct temperature depending on the material and thickness. This succeeds after feeling and practice. An optimum cutting pattern is usually achieved at medium temperature and moderate pressure. Support surface with hole for screw clamp allows stationary use. Also practical for cutting standard polystyrene plates (100 x 50 cm). Technical data: 230 V. 50/60 Hz. 60 W. Secondary voltage max. 40 V, 1.2 A. Cutting wire temperature for wire Ø 0.2 mm adjustable from 100 - 350 °C. Weight 850 g. The device is insulated according to class 2.
