KX-1 Code Machine
KX-1 Code Machine Endorsed By Sargent For Degree Key Systems
Sargent Manufacturing has endorsed Framon key cutting equipment for their new Degree key system. Sargent’s new system carries a utility patent valid through 2027. Framon #2 and FRA-2001 (FRA-2001 only capable of Degree 1 keys) owners will only need the proper cutting wheel to originate these keys. KX-1 owners can now purchase cam kits for Degree 1 (DG1) and Degree 2/3 (DG2) systems. For end users desiring to originate these keys, the KX-1 can cut Degree keys in seconds accurate to .0005”.

Framon’s Revolutionary Code Machine…When You Need Accuracy And Speed
Some Call It The “Electric Punch”
What Is It? The KX-1 is designed to quickly and accurately code cut cylinder keys, and in particular, high security keys. The KX-1 uses interchangeable depth and space cams to cut just about any cylinder key in use today. The cams take only seconds to interchange, and no adjustment is needed from one manufacturer to the next.
Tom Demont, National Sales Manager from Assa High Security Locks, has this to say about the KX-1: “Since 1988, Assa has been furnishing our end users with the KX-1 code machine. We know we can count on the machine to make key cutting an easy job. It is the most accurate and precise key machine we have found for cutting our high security Assa key blanks. Add to that the fact the machine rarely needs adjustment – a great key machine in every way!“
We’ve already tested the machine on locks such as Medeco, Assa, Schlage Primus, Kaba PEAKS, and Best. Kaba has already approved and recommends the machine for cutting its’ PEAKS .140 and .150 keys. Assa offers the machine to their Twin/V-10 end users.
The machine is capable of cutting keys accurate to .0005″ in about fifteen seconds. For interchangeable core type keys, the vise has a built-in tip stop. For others such as Medeco or Schlage, a shoulder stop properly aligns the key.
When switching from one manufacturer to another, simply remove an Allen screw to take the cam off of the machine. Reinstall the screw to put the new cam on the machine. Of course, depending on which type of key you plan on cutting, a cutting wheel change may also be necessary. Patented keys such as Medeco KeyMark may also need a vise change to properly hold the key.
When purchased, the KX-1 comes set up for whichever manufacturer you prefer. Additional cams, cutters and vises can then be purchased separately based on your needs. Kits are available for the following manufacturers:
Assa, Arrow, Best A-2, A-3 and A-4, Corbin-Russwin (including Emhart), Falcon, Kaba Peaks .140 and .150, Kwikset (including Titan), Master, Medeco Commercial, Bi-Axial, and KeyMark, Sargent, Schlage Standard, Primus and Everest, Weiser, Yale
The KX-1 is ideal for institutional locksmiths using only one or two key systems. Locksmiths who do large masterkey systems or routinely cut high security keys will also appreciate the new KX-1.
