Abstract
A method for producing a key (50), wherein a data set (40) of a key is obtained by recording the surface of the key (10) and subsequently performing a data optimization (55), or from data of a data collection (46), in order to produce the key (50) from a semi-finished product clamped in a machine by a computer-controlled production method (9), wherein at least two different locking features are introduced into the semi-finished product.
Claims51
A method for manufacturing a key (50), comprising the following steps:
- (a) obtaining a data record (40) of a key bye recording (2, 3, 4) a surface of the key (10, 204) with subsequent data optimization (55), or through the acquisition of data from a data collection (46) to obtain a semi-finished product (130);
- (b) clamping the semi-finished product (130) into a semi-finished product module (500);
- (c) machining the semi-finished product (130) by a manufacturing device (300) such that at least two different locking characteristics (131, 132, 135, 136, 137, 139, 187, 181) are formed in the semi-finished product (130) in order to manufacture the key (50).
A device for recording the surface of a key (10, 204) comprising a scanning unit (192), a key holder (196), a computing unit (199), and a camera (191).
A device for manufacturing a key from a semi-finished product (130) comprising a control module (350), a processing base (301), a semi-finished product module (500), and a profile milling cutter module (600).
