Machine key cutting is a large industry since the early 80’s when the first machinery started to arrive into the market to help locksmith’s tackle the issue of key copying speed. The first revolutionary machine the HPC-1200 solved the problem of copying automotive keys with a key cutter like piston which carved into the key and slid progressively further, cutting the various depths of the key. As problems started to emerge with the key machine due to its low speed performance the worldwide distributor at the time named Bianchi imported the new version HPC-1200 CM to Europe and added a a few “improvements” to it bringing more hpc cards into the picture to support the automotive industry in Europe at the time.
The concept of Computer Numerical Control which is CNC has helped to develop the first electronic automatic coded key-cutting machine like Uno-code. Electronic key cutting machines were made to simplify the process of duplicating keys by introducing code and laser into the market; electronic machines compile a database of information relating to car makes, models, series and other types of code for depths and cuts of required keys. The possibilities with an electronic code machine are endless, copying all types of keys including auto and etc.; with side cut technology and lasers carve technology.

Ignition Key Making
Laser cut- Many car makers these days use key systems which require high security laser cutting machinery, the keys contain a complicated numbered sequence engraved on the blade of the key with a laser guided cutting drill; sharp as a blade. Laser cut keys can be copied via code or by a simple automated laser reading. Best way to make a new key is via code, simply because a code provides more accuracy when cutting rather than a used key; making it more durable before ignition problem begins to occur.
Side cut – The electric motor which powers the most of the machines today was invented over a century ago, this same electric motor technology which today has combined electronic data base with it and made it into an automatic side cutting code machine which we use these days, among many names one example stands out like for example the HPC Codemax models. This machine makes key generating easy, able to punch endless possibilities of cuts into endless list of key types and keyways. Automotive keys, house keys and mailbox keys are all have the same side cut engraved depths which can be also easily duplicated with our manual cutting machine; no code required.
