## Long description

Proxxon Micromot THERMOCUT 20W model 27 080 is a compact hot wire cutter designed for precise cutting of Styrofoam and similar foam materials. The tool heats a fine cutting wire to produce clean, controlled cuts with minimal dust and debris, enabling accurate shaping of contours and edges. Its lightweight design and ergonomic grip make it suitable for detailed model making, prototyping and craftwork where fine control and repeatable results are required.
Advantages
The THERMOCUT delivers steady cutting performance through a 20 W heater that maintains a consistent wire temperature for uniform slices. It reduces mechanical tearing and crumbling common with blade cutting, producing neater edges and less cleanup. Compact size and balanced weight improve maneuverability for intricate work, while the simple on/off control ensures straightforward operation. The design focuses on ease of handling and predictable cutting behavior for foam shaping tasks.
Suitable for
Scale model construction and dioramas
Architectural and product prototyping using foam cores
Insulation trimming and custom-shaped foam inserts
Hobby and DIY craft projects involving polystyrene and expanded foam
Key specifications
Nominal power: 20 watts for stable heating
Heating element: fine hot cutting wire for precise slicing
Compatible materials: Styrofoam, expanded polystyrene and similar soft foams
Form factor: compact, lightweight handheld tool for fine control
Control: simple on/off operation for straightforward use
How to use
Mount the appropriate cutting wire securely and connect the tool to a power source according to the manufacturer's safety instructions. Allow the wire to reach operating temperature before making contact with the foam. Guide the heated wire through the material at an even pace to avoid melting excessively or creating irregular edges. For continuous straight cuts, use a straightedge or guide; for curves and contours, move the tool smoothly while supporting the workpiece. Turn the device off and allow the wire to cool fully before storage or changing accessories.
Usage recommendations
Work in a well-ventilated area and avoid inhaling fumes produced when cutting certain foam types. Use clamps or supports to secure small workpieces and maintain steady hand movements for accurate results. Wear appropriate PPE such as safety glasses and dust mask if needed. Do not use the tool on materials not specified for hot-wire cutting, and follow all safety and maintenance guidelines provided with the device.
