The Proxxon MICRO-Sonic Cutter MSC uses blades that vibrate at ultrasonic frequency — allowing them to slice through materials with minimal drag, no heat buildup, and no fraying or tearing on sensitive cut edges. Where a rotary tool or static blade would pull, compress, or melt the material, the MSC's ultrasonic action cuts cleanly and precisely through plastics, fiber composites (CFRP, GFRP), 3D printing materials (FDM filaments and resin prints), foils, cardboard, MDF, epoxy resin, leather, and much more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Ultrasonic Cutting Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MSC drives its blade at ultrasonic frequency — tens of thousands of vibrations per second. This rapid oscillation means the blade is effectively always cutting on the forward stroke, reducing the friction and drag of a static blade to near zero.
