ILCO – Silca Futura Edge Plus – High Security Key Cutter and Duplicator – for Medeco Biaxial Silca

SLK-ILCO-BK0509XXXX
Item Number: XXXX

Building further upon the original Futura Edge’s innovations, the Futura Edge Plus has is a tilting cutter assembly that also allows the cutting and decoding of Medeco® biaxial keys and operates in 3 positions. The Futura Edge Plus will easily duplicate by copying from the original key, by indirect code or by direct code. Like its predecessors, this model is powerful enough for the professional and ideal for inexperienced users thanks to the software-guided procedures.

Controlled by a removable 10” (254)mm) touch-screen tablet, the Futura Edge guides the user step-by-step in all key-cutting operations: for example, in selecting the make, model, and year for automotive keys, in the choice of the right clamp, how to load the key, etc. This machine is compact, lightweight, and portable making this an ideal choice for mobile service operations or where counter space is limited. A mounting bracket is included for securing the machine to a workbench. The patented laser reading of the key profile makes the Edge Plus the only electronic machine in the market that allows you to duplicate a flat key without first searching for the relevant cutting card.

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 deliver 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.

• 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.
