Silca Triax Pro - Using the Cutters

4.4 USING THE CUTTERS
• The cutter provided, with code “W101”, is suitable for TRACK type keys (for certain SSN only).
• The cutter provided, with code “W146”, is used for ENGRAVING only.
• The cutter provided, with code “W500”, is an “alternative” tool which can replace certain special cutters for keys
with dimple cuts (see ch.).
ATTENTION:
• The right cutter to use for an SSN in use will be shown on the display. The type of cutter to t is
indicated by the letter W (hard metal). If the operator does not have the required tool s/he may select
a different one:
- indicated by the letter W (hard metal) (see Ch.6.5.2).
- indicated by the letter H (HSS) if included in the Silca database (see Ch.6.12.2).
• It is good practice to set the cutter material for your cutters. In this way, when the cutter is needed by
the SSN in use, cutter spindle speed will be appropriate.
• To achieve OPTIMUM results on keys, use hard metal cutters (W).
• If you need to use HSS cutters (H), to achieve optimum results use only two-bladed ones.
