Engraving Kit for Futura and Futura Pro

The Engraving Kit is a set of accessories dedicated to engraving, compatible with all the Futura and Futura Pro key cutting machines. The special, three stepped jaws make it easy to install a wide variety of metal keys, small medals and plates, whilst the free software has been developed to guide you step-to-step through the creation and management of customised engraving models, designed for a vast range of references both from Silca and others.

Optimised engraving for a wide range of keys, small medals and plates
The special jaws, compatible with 01R clamp, are designed to facilitate the installation of a vast array of metal and aluminium Ultralite keys, small medals and plates. The jaws feature 3 areas (or steps) for engraving items of different dimensions:
- Engraving area 1: 26-32 mm x 40 mm;
- Engraving area 2: 20-26 mm x 40 mm;
- Engraving area 3: 8-14 mm x 40 mm.

Pre-set user models and guided procedures
The software includes over 220 default user models for just as many Silca references (keys, medals and plates), which identify the areas for inserting the text you want to engrave. For each reference, you can select the depth of the incision, whilst the software indicates the jaw step you should use.

Management of user models
The software allows you to create customized engraving models through a user-friendly editor that enables you to add text areas, both on the front and rear of the jey or medal, and to adjust their size and position within pre-set parameters.

Engraving other references
With the command "Customised" you can create new engraving models, not yet present in the database, by defining the available area. You can create a rectangle (typically used for a circle (typically used for the key head).

Practical use of the engraving feature
All the user models can be accessed both from the "Engraving" main menu of the software and from the "Cut" menu to engrave a compatible reference.

Optimised procedures with the job queues
The software also manages job queues, with which you will be to set the cutting/engraving parameters of a series of keys and, afterwards, process them. Depending on your needs, you can engrave all the keys first and then cut them, or vice versa. This will result in an optimised duplication with a significant reduction of time spent installing accessories.

Quality performance
The machine performance, in terms of engraving quality, varies according to the speed of the cutting tool:
- 7100 rpm for the Futura key cutting machines;
- 12100 rpm for the Futura Pro key cutting machines.
