Self service key duplicating machine with automatic key model identification system
09914179 · 2018-03-13 · ·

A method of duplicating a key includes receiving a master key in a key duplicating machine. The machine automatically detects a cross sectional profile of the master key. The machine automatically determines, based on the detected cross sectional profile, a type and model of the master key. The machine automatically selects a key blank that matches the type and model of the master key, and then automatically cuts the selected key blank to duplicate a key tooth pattern of the master key.
