The thermal cutoff is a safety limiter built into an AI curing tube. The tube's sterilization cycle can reach incineration temperatures, and the cutoff ordinarily prevents that heat from being used destructively.
Tomas Tristar bypasses the cutoff when the curing tube is used to cremate biological Yvonne Kaiden's remains after the CKS Orpheus accident. This is an improvised use of a repair machine, not its intended medical function.
