The main parts of the machine are described below:
Main switch
The key-cutting machine is co nnected to a power supply socket provided with a differential switch.
Pressing the switch (T) powers the machine and illuminates the lamps (R) to indicate that current is on.
ATTENTION: Switch (T) is electromagnetic, in the event of a power failure it goes out automatically. When
electricity is restored it must be reset manually to power the machine again.
Motor on switch
On the left-hand side of the DUO key-cutting machine there is also a switch for starting up the motor (U).
ATTENTION: the illuminated switch remains on to indicate that the key-cutting machine has been started
(cutter in motion).
Motor and transmission unit
Motor transmission takes place by belt.
On the right-hand side of the motor there is the transmission shaft which moves the brush (P).
On the left-hand side of the motor there is the shaft which moves the cutter spindle.
These components are protected by a top cover (Q).
Clamp carriages
The carriages comprise two clamps. They move horizontally and frontally controlled by handles (C and
H).
The DUO machine carriages can be locked into a fixed position and in this way achieve translation by
means of the flywheel located on the right-hand side of the machine (chap.8.1.3, page 21) (Attention:
not available on Duo Brazil version).
The carriages are so designed as to avoid accumulation of dust or cutting swarf.
The machine is designed with a ramp along which chippings can fall into the special chippings tray (S)
placed under the carriage and easily removable for emptying and cleaning.
Cutting unit
The cutting unit contains the actual wo rking parts of the DUO key-cutting machine , which operate to-
gether to cut and finish keys "read" from the originals.
The working parts are described below:
•
Cutting Tools
The cutting tools (F) and (M) are the parts of the DUO used for cutting key blanks. The cutting tools are
in HSS super rapid steel and are protected by a special cover (W) to ensure safe operation. The shield
(W) is mobile and can be placed over the cutter that is not in use.
•
Tracer points
The tracer points are dedicated to reading cuts on the key to be duplicated and are:
- tracer point (G) on the left-hand side of the machine, for flat keys for cylinders and vehicles and cru-
ciform keys;
- tracer point (N) on the right-hand side of the machine, for bit, double bit, pump and mail box keys*.
The depth of the tracer points is easily regulated by means of the relative graduated nut.
* Mail box keys only on DUO and DUO BRAZIL versions
