Silca Futura Edge Plus – Cuts Edge Cut and Medeco Biaxial Keys (By code and Duplicate)
Built on the successful Futura Edge platform the Futura Edge Plus is designed and engineered to originate, decode and copy edge-cut keys for commercial, residential, and automotive. However, the main feature that sets this machine apart from its predecessor is a tilting cutter assembly that also allows the cutting and decoding of Medeco® biaxial keys and operates in 3 positions. The optional 07V clamp has a built-in tip stop to allow the user to easily clamp all current keyways for Kaba Peaks® and Best® keys. Jaw position E (BEST®) is designed for clamping Best® keys that have 0.150” spacing between cuts and can also be used for the Peaks® applications that utilize the 0.150” spacing. Jaw position F is used for the Peaks® systems utilizing 0.140” spacing. Simply install the 07V in place of the 08V and calibrate the clamp to the machine.
Work Efficiencies:
• Fast cutting cycles.
• Patented laser reading of the key profile allows you to copy a key without searching for the relevant card.
• The tablet and electronics used in the Futura Edge Plus delivers fast start-up and fast response times between the tablet and the machine reducing the overall time to duplicate a key.
• All exposed screws are made of stainless steel for better resistance to wear and longer life.
• Details include a tool/accessory holder on top of the machine and a protective shield.
• The unique 08V clamp has 4 universal sides for holding flat keys, vehicle keys, and cruciform keys. Side B is designed for Medeco® keys.
• Securely clamp standard residential/commercial keys on side A.
• Sides C and D are dedicated to automotive keys (“tongue and groove system”) to allow for proper alignment of two-sided keys so that even worn keys can be easily decoded.
• The color-changing LED lights help the operator to immediately see the process status: white – the machine is ready to proceed, yellow – the machine is in the process of cutting the key, green – the key cutting is complete and it is safe to raise the safety shield.
• Wi-Fi link between machine and tablet or the user can tether the tablet directly to the machine.
• Equipped with two USB ports on the back of the machine; one for tablet recharge and one for the tethering connection so the machine and tablet remain connected and operational even when the Wi-Fi connection is lost or unstable. The second USB port can also be used to connect the supplied USB flash drive to import code tables or machine software updates.
