What materials can the Thermocut 230/E cut?

It can cut through polystyrene and hard foam.

How quickly does the cutter heat up?

The cutting wire heats up to full temperature in less than 1 second.

Is the cutting surface suitable for detailed work?

Yes, the aluminum composite surface allows for smooth gliding, ideal for detailed template work.

Does this Proxon table require a Proxon power adaptor?

Nope. Mine was good to go right out of the box.

Can I cut circles / discs of 30 cm diameter? Can I cut 10-30 degree angles at the side? Can it cut Plastazote LD70?

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

Hi, do we need to purchase its power supply separately or does it come with it?

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

What type of foam does this Proxxon cut?

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 off toxic fumes when melted.

Will this cut through 3 layers of fabric that are 2-3mm thick?

Hello, this is used to model polystyrene. Best regards from Kromac.

Is the machine easy to install and does it have an English manual?

Yes, it comes with an English manual/instructions. It was fairly easy as I did it the same day I got it within 15 minutes.

Will I need a UK power adaptor for this device?

The one I got came with a UK Adapter. You just plug the 2 pin connector into the UK connector and you're ready to go.

Will this cut adhesive-backed open cell foam (1-5mm thick) with the paper back still on?

Hotwires only cut polystyrene. They will not cut other materials such as paper.

Is the pedal included?

No, the pedal is a separate purchase.
