Practical And Easy To Operate

Futura Pro is operated by a detachable, 10-inch touch-screen tablet, which leads the user step-by-step through all key cutting operations (for instance, choosing the proper key profile for a cylinder key, the make, model, and year for vehicle keys, in addition to the appropriate cutter and clamp).).

The tablet incorporates all of Silca Software’s key features and information, including a wide variety of data cards and code tables for flat, cruciform, laser, and dimple keys.

Immediate Process Control

The key cutter can quickly see the process status thanks to the color-changing LED lights:

  • white: the machine is ready to proceed;
  • yellow: the machine is cutting a key;
  • green: the key cutting is complete.

Faster Cutting Cycles

Futura Pro has faster cutting cycles because of a motor that has up to three times more power and cutters that can run at speeds of 1585 rpm for flat keys and 12100 rpm for laser and dimple keys.

Faster response times and overall improved machine performance are delivered by a new tablet combined with upgraded electronics.

Improved Hardware And Connectivity With 2 Usb Ports

For better wear resistance and a longer lifespan, all exposed screws are made of stainless steel. 2 USB ports are available on the device at the back: one for the tablet battery charger and one for the tethering connection so that even when the Wi-Fi connection is broken or unstable, the tablet and Futura Pro remain linked and functional.

Additionally, the USB flash drive included with Futura Pro can be connected to the second USB port in order to import code tables or machine software updates.
